Wetherell Harris Denison-1 and Wetherell-8 appear to represent the same person because: These two should be merged. Same father, same birth, name indicates same husbands. Wetherell Harris Denison is a combination of maiden name and married names. The final Last Name at Birth should be Wetherell.

Thanks.

Hi Gillian,

There is a problem with the dates here. Either Mary was not the mother of Hannah, as they were born more than 100 years apart, or the birth date for Hannah is wrong. I certainly doubt that Hannah, who was born in Yorkshire, is the daughter of a woman born in Connecticut.

I believe that daughter Hannah should be disconnected, and this Mary should be merged with her sister Mary, with Wetherell as the Last Name At Birth.

Would you like to make the adjustment, or would you like me to? Vic
