Bartlett-2452 and Bartlett-2178 appear to represent the same person because: From death and funeral notices, these are the same person. He married twice. I've added numerous sources, particularly to Bartlett-2178 confirming that he was the father of the children from both marriages. Baptism source is for 1 May 1849, and birth registration was in the second quarter of 1849. Thanks for reviewing.
