Could you please check your research because the profile says he married "Rebekah Buller" but he is linked to "Rebecca Spencer" ???

Perhaps there are 2 different men with the same name of David Bennett who married different Rebeccas?

This is backed up because the profiles say he is having children at the same time with 2 different wives.

children by Plummer wife ...

Elizabeth Bennett 10 Nov 1672
Sarah Bennett Born 15 Sep 1682

Anthony Bennett, b: 12 Sep 1679

Spencer Bennett, b: 06 Jun 1685

Is the correct date for marriage to Rebecca Spencer 14 Feb 1682/83? Or, is the marriage to Rebecca Spencer completely incorrect?

Grimaldi-172 Sarah Grimaldi
The date for Rebecca was incorrect, but only in the year. The date has been updated on the profile.

Bennet-558 and Bennett-3395 appear to represent the same person because: Same person. One has his first wife & children and one has his last wife & children. 1616 is the correct birth year. He was born in England. Not sure about the spelling of the name but I've more often seen it Bennett than Bennet.
