Conflation
Robert B. Russell remarried after Nancy Weaver's death. His new wife also had the name of Nancy, surname Robinson. They married around 1846. As a result of Robert having 2 wives named Nancy who were born around the same time, some researchers have assumed there was only one wife and combined both Nancy's into one person.
