Reaburn-3 and Rayburn-10 appear to represent the same person because: Husband of Margaret Rebecca (Christal) Rayburn — married 1767 in Augusta,, Virginia

Recommend that the merge go into the more common spelling of the Rayburn name and use Reaburn as "other" last name.

Henry and Margaret (Christal) Rayburn are noted in Volumen 3 of the "Sayre Family: Another 100 years," as their daughter, Rebecca Rayburn married Jeremiah McDaniel, Jr. "The Henry Rayburn family left the surname on landmarks in Greenbrier and Mason Counties. Rayburn Draught is found in Greenbrier County, and in Mason County is Rayburn (settlement); Rayburn Creek, and Rayburn Cemetery. The Christal Family was also an influential family in early Augusta County, Virginia."
