White-8761 and White-4572 appear to represent the same person because: Same person. The August 25, 1760 death date on White-8761 is an error. That's the date of her husband's death, as recorded in Lancaster Records page 324 at http://www.americanancestors.org/databases/massachusetts-vital-records-to-1850/image/?volumeId=13320&pageName=324&rId=238413695

White-8765 and White-4572 appear to represent the same person because: The Judith White who married Bezaleel Sawyer was the daughter of Josiah White and Mary Rice. See http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/l/u/n/Alan-P-Lundstedt-Cincinnati/GENE8-0010.html . Also note that the death dates are the same.
