Ormsby-162 (
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ormsby-162)has
a muddled biography, which appears to mix facts relevant to two different Joane Smiths. Each Joane married a John Smith; one in Maine, maiden name Ormsby, (
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ormsby-401
) and one in Boston, later living 24 years in New London CT, whose maiden name and first husband's name were not known. Unknown-376314 (
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Unknown-376314
) is the individual married to John Smith of New London CT. They are all pre-1700.

I would contact whoever is listed and gather information for clarification. Next, if the profiles are duplicates, you can propose a merge. Be sure to look at the documents on all profiles as well.
I hope this helps.
