Wade-5397 and Wade-1215 appear to represent the same person because: Obvious match, based upon name and date/place of death. Discrepancy in year very likely came from a misreading of a "double date" of 1712/13, this being in fashion at the time. Under our modern calendar, this would be 1713.

Symonds-405 and Wade-1215 appear to represent the same person because: Mary Wade, daughter of Jonathan and Susanna (___) Wade married first William Symonds, married second Francis Littlefield See GM source on Profiles. Symonds should be merged INTO Wade. Thanks.
