Watterus-1 and Watrous-1 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate

I found Jane, daughter of Isaac and Elizabeth, but I think the Elizabeth was the daughter of Abraham Bronson.

According to the Hyde Genealogy in North American Families, Isaac Watrous had only one child by Elizabeth Lord and his name was Isaac. By his second wife, he had around 7 children but there was not one named Jane.

Hi Merry - Have you seen the three Miner grave entries/pictures from Alford, MA at the East Road Cemetery? There is Jane Miner, d. 14 Feb 1811, ae 93 yrs and mother of Rufus Miner; Rufus Miner d. 19 Mar 1825 ae 67 yrs and husband of Eunice Miner d. 25 Jan 1798 ae 37 yrs wife of Rufus. They are all inscribed on a tall monument. It looks to me as if this might be Jane Watrous Miner, her son Rufus, and dau-in-law Eunice. The #s & dates add up to be Jane - if she died in 1811 as on the monument. Jane is Find A Grave Memorial# 38018146, all 3 are created by Elsie Saar. What do you think?
