Source data for Coggeshall Wood marriage has been included here; Thurston-845 has supporting evidence for other marriages
posted by Jim Baker
Thurston-845 and Thurston-1436 appear to represent the same person because: I believe there is sufficient evidence now that shows Mehetable Thurston was married three times, so we may go ahead with the merge. Please try to find additional sources to support the additional spouses. Thank you.
Thurston-845 and Thurston-1436 are not ready to be merged because: I would like to see some sources for Danial Wood as the spouse of Mehitable Thurston.
