Sparks-4154 and Sparks-1594 appear to represent the same person because: Samuel Eli Sparks born 1818 in Lawrence, AL to Thomas Elijah Sparks and Ruth B White Sparks, married Frances Kitchens about 1839 in Walker County and lived in Walker County until his death in 1865, is buried in Pisgah Cemetery, Carbon Hill, Walker, Alabama, had 11 children: not sure where the B in B Samuel Sparks came from, have never seen a record referring to him any way other than Samuel or Samuel Eli; but there is no doubt that they are the same person; please consider merging them, Thank you

Thanks. For that matter, I have not seen any records referring to him as anything but Samuel. Do you have any records that use "Eli" or even a middle initial?
