Reviewing Change Log for this profile, it looks like this profile was initially created as a son of John with no wife. Merge in 2016 added wife of Lydia. Change in 2018 made for father to William.
Because of children birth info with different mothers and common name for father in same years in same town, there must have been 2 Jeremiah Spencers, one with wife of Elizabeth, one with Abigail. Possibly one has father of John and the other has father of William.
