Randolph-991 and Randolph-635 do not represent the same person because: Different places, different wife, different death date

Also have proposed merges for all 3 wives listed. He only had 1 wife Ann daughter of David and Susannah Everard Meade. They appear to be all the same people. Have seen her listed as Nancy as well, but she is listed as Ann in both her father and Husband's will.

I have removed several children that were listed under Richard and Ann(Nancy) Meade Randolph. It is clearly documented in his will the 8 children he had and who his wife was. I have noted the removed children's profiles to provide documentation in order to add them back. I couldn't find documentation on any of them. The children attached now should be the only children.

Take a look at https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/L213-1P5/details, while the dates are unsourced, this is the common view of his birth.
