Scott-58877 and Scott-9860 appear to represent the same person because: Vitals match closely (given resolution available). One profile not yet sourced. Spouse is duplicate. Father appears to be duplicate (both cite DAR Patriot Ancestor status), mother appears to be duplicate as well but death dates vary.
