Hills-1301 and Hills-652 appear to represent the same person because: John Ward had the death date for a different John Ward listed.

Hills-1301 and Hills-652 are not ready to be merged because: I am still troubled by the two husbands. One is thought to have died in 1691 and the other 1694. This needs to be resolved before I will be willing to accept a merge. Sorry! I believe I may be descended from Thomas Davis.

Hills-1301 and Hills-652 appear to represent the same person because: Thomas wasn't her son.

Hills-1301 and Hills-652 are not ready to be merged because: The children of Sarah by different husbands are said to have been born in the same year. This needs to be cleared up, but if it can be, it in no way precludes this merge. Sequential marriages were very common in these days of common early death.

Hills-1301 and Hills-652 appear to represent the same person because: She married twice once to Ward, then Davis.

Unknown-151889 and Hills-652 appear to represent the same person because: It looks like these ladies are the same, as they share a husband.
