Rejecting the proposed merge with Rankin-625 because death year and place of death differ so widely.
posted by R (Metcalf) Stephen
Death year 1703 vs 1667; Alexander was either 79 or 43 when he died in Pennsylvania - or death dates are for two different men ... NEEDS RESEARCH.

I'll reject the merge for now.

If They are the same person, please merge. They may be two unrelated individuals. If two separate individuals, Rankin-50 is the son of the parents shown. Rankin-625 must have different parents, so please remove him as the son of parent shown. Thank you!

Rankin-625 and Rankin-50 appear to represent the same person because: These look like the same person. Same name, same parents, same birth data. Death data and wife’s first name differ. Each has a son, William who will need to be merged as well. It know this is a mess! Thank you for looking in to it. I’m directly descended from this family, and familiar with the history, and have no record of a second son named alexander. Lmk if I can help in any way!
