Was this Jennings/Rash (married to Shepherd brothers) overlap ever resolved.

If I'm coming up with the same issues that existed over 1 1/2 years ago, it looks like the problem hasn't been resolved.  I just spent the day digging myself out of the same hole regarding Sarah Rash and and Sarah Jennings. I found myself thinking that her maiden name was Jennings and that she married twice Rash and a Shepherd, and then it took on a story all its own with nothing but "issues" ... mainly two sets of non-identical parents - then gradually husbands who were brothers (?) ... but the children got skewed. I am backing away from working on this (particularly since I don't have the time, I am not related, and I'm doing major updates on my own managed profiles . I just thought super G2G team might be able to work on this to make sure that all the linked family line is accurate and that no one else lands in the same mire. This one has me "brain dead" in trying to start over from scratch. Afraid my interest has waned.

I found an interesting thing on Ancestry that John Shepherd and Robert Shepherd are brothers and both their wives are named Sarah. They are listed in "The Early Settlers of the Reddies River Church". So, perhaps the Sarahs Rash-115 and Rash-151 are the sisters who married the brothers. And so they are two separate individuals and should not be merged. Found the Find a Grave reference for Sarah married to Robert which indicates that her parents were Joseph and Mary Warren Rash. Still working on the other Sarah.
