Walker-1692 and Walker-1457 appear to represent the same person because: Exact same person. All elements merge without issue. Thanks for your help in completing the merge.
There's a Rehoboth, MA. marriage record for Elizabeth Walker and Henry Sweet dated 29 Mar 1687. (Ma. Compiled Marriages, 1633-1850).
There's a Rehoboth, MA. marriage record for Elizabeth Walker and Henry Sweet dated 29 Mar 1687. I believe that's the Henry Sweet-3923 she should be attached too.
Billy, I think you're right (referencing you're comment below). Brent Bowen's Elizabeth Walker-1457 profile has it correct that she wed a Henry Sweet-142 but probably the wrong Henry as profiled (died after 1749, E. Greenwich, RI). There may have been Jane Sweet born to this couple, 9 Oct, 1688, Swansea, MA and there may have been another son John who died young or it's the same John w/ incomplete birth yr but a complete baptism date. I thought Elizabeth Walker's mother was just "Jane" Metcalf. She did have an older sister Mary (Marcy) who marr. Henry Wilson. I believe the "Metcalf Genealogy" refers to her as Jane (tho w/ the wrong husband). Thanks. D. Jenkins-761.
