DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Mary by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Mary:
Whitmarsh-333 and Whitmarsh-33 do not represent the same person because: Whitmarsh-333 was born in the wrong place and the wrong year. She has no other similarities to Whitmarsh-33. She should not be married to Samuel Blanchard - he married Mary Whitmarsh, born May 17, 1721 in Abington, daughter of Ebenezer and Elizabeth (Dyer) Whitmarsh. Genealogy stories for both families support this (please see sources on Whitmarsh-359, which should be merged with Whitmarsh-33.
I would agree that one of the three Mary's is not the same and shouldn't be merged. Two of the Mary's are definitely the same Whitmarsh-33 and Whitmarsh-359.
Samuel Blanchard married one Mary Whitmarsh, born in Abington, Ma May 17, 1721 the daughter of Ebenezer and Elizabeth (Dyer). Records for both the Whitmarsh and Blanchard families support this.
Whitmarsh-333 born in 1724 in Stoughton is not the same woman and therefore needs to be unwed from Samuel.
Thank you for merging these profiles. Now the merge is completed, please return to this profile and merge the Biography and Sources sections, eliminating duplicate information and creating ONE Biography and ONE Sources section for the completed profile.

Whitmarsh-336 and Whitmarsh-33 appear to represent the same person because: We have about 4 Mary Whitmarsh Blanchards, all married to essentially Samuel Blanchard (we also have two of him). These are all the same Mary - I made the latest one. They are alive in the same time period, with the same children, same husband. There are slight differences in their dates and places of birth, but I think these are errors in documentation and these are all the same woman. They need to become one!
Whitmarsh-33 and Whitmarsh-359 appear to represent the same person because: I made the second Mary - for some reason the first one was not suggested. But these are the same person. Children, spouse, date of birth dre the same. Wm and Samuel are brothers. Her parents are the ones I would have entered. I don't think she died in Maine, but don't know for sure. .
Samuel Blanchard married one Mary Whitmarsh, born in Abington, Ma May 17, 1721 the daughter of Ebenezer and Elizabeth (Dyer). Records for both the Whitmarsh and Blanchard families support this.
Whitmarsh-333 born in 1724 in Stoughton is not the same woman and therefore needs to be unwed from Samuel.
