Sherman-6019 and Sherman-4343 appear to represent the same person because: identical profiles except for parents, which appear to be incorrect on -6019

All of your sources indicate Elkanah Sherman. Wife Elizabeth Manchester as the parents, yet this profile has a different set of parents. And the father has a different last name. I think the mother is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Manchester-33 and the father is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Shearman-153
