Bolling-480 and Bolling-387 appear to represent the same person because: Little information is known about Bolling-387, but both were born in the same state, and both had a son John.

Bolen-304 and Bolling-480 appear to represent the same person because: Yes, J Wesley Doughman they are the same person. There is no way to tell what the correct spelling is because even on some government documents the spelling of the last name varies for the same person. i.e. My line of the family it goes from Bowling to Bowlin to Bolen. It varies from census to census and other documents.

Bolen-304 and Bolling-480 are not ready to be merged because: The administrators of Bolen/Bolling and all spellings have been contacted. They have a Benjamin Bolling 1734-1832.
