Smith-73938 and Smith-45834 do not represent the same person because: Smith-73938 married Martha Bowman (Keziah will be removed). POB's and POD's differ. See "History of Town of. Lexington " p. 639 for 73938 info.

Smith-73938 and Smith-45834 appear to represent the same person because: both of these Abraham Smiths have the same wife, Keziah Stiles Smith. Please merge Smith-73938 into Smith-45834. Thank you!
