I was just clicking around the children of Samuel Edson and Susanna(h) Orcutt when I noticed an issue with thier daughter Sarah Edson Dean(e). Which husband is the right husband? Also, who should and shouldn't be merged? I haven't added Sarah in my tree yet, so I don't know the first thing about her.

Now that I looked further, I think some children need to be merged as well. Thank you all for all the work you've done and/or will ever do with wikitree.

I have merged all the correct John Dean's so that Sarah Edson has one husband.  Adopted those John Dean's that were abandoned.  Changed James to John and also merged.

There was one John Dean that I removed from the profile altogether as he had different parents and siblings - either he is a different John Dean entirely, or he is possibly John Dane, from the names of some of his siblings.

I also removed several children of Sarah and John  that were not listed as their children in Taunton VR and other sources.

Added brief bio and sources to both John Dean/Deane (Deane-53) and Sarah Edson.

All the children are now listed on their profiles, but do not all have separate profiles of their own.
