I thought I remembered reading about a Van Meter - Van Meter marriage, but can't find it now.  I'm trying to identify the lowest numbered profile for this Jacob.  It's either this profile (http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Van_Meter-77) or Van_Meter-17 - http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Van_Meter-17 - which shows no dates and no attachments other than wife Jane Van Meter and son Jessie (I followed descendants/spouses, but none of the profiles had a date).    <br>

Does anyone know something that would show whether or not these two Jacobs are the same person?  <br>

Thanks, Liz

thanks so much Frank!  Definitely not the same person (Van Meter-77 - born 1705)

I may have to give up my dial-up sooner rather than later so that I can do the familysearch.org site (I used to be able to, although it took forever, but they redesigned a bit ago and now I get timed out before I get results).

Thanks again!
