Elizabeth married a second time after the death of John Boddie. Is it OK if I add her second husband?

Thanks!

marriage date can't be right (after husband died).

From a private e-mail: ". . . But on Thomas-5568, I just checked his daughter Elizabeth (Thomas) Boddie, and it says that she was married in 1734. I don't see how that is possible if her husband died in 1720 (and their son John Jr. supposedly born about 1710). I suspect that 1734 might be the marriage date of John Boddie Jr. instead of John Sr.

mother was changed from Elizabeth Hill-1805 (who died 1666) to Elizabeth Hill-14617 - both daughters of Nicholas, but by different wives.
