Colbert-701 and Unknown-312040 are not ready to be merged because: Would really like to know maiden name. Don't really want to merge into Unknown.
posted by Karen (Rollet) Lorenz
Considering the practice for Virginia at the time,* Colbert is the surname of Hope's husband after William Fergason died (from his profile: "The last Will and Testament of W.m FERGUSON dec.d was presented in Court by Hope COLBERT late Hope FERGUSON the Ex.x therein app.d who made Oath thereto and being proved by the Oath of the Wit.s thereto is admitted to Record.")

* In working with Dutch records, I learned that women frequently retained their maiden name in official documents. There's no indication that this should apply in this case, so Colbert-701 should be merged away into Unknown-312040.

Unknown-312040 and UNKNOWN-105724 appear to represent the same person because: I just proposed a merge for the dupicate profiles of her husband. Since her maiden name is not known, she should have the LNAB of "Unkown" (just initial cap, not all cap, per WikiTree guidelines). Please merge. Thanks!
