1. The date of death listed above is the date the obit was published. Her death was on the previous Tuesday, 15 Oct 1893.
2. The Census data estimates her birth in either 1824 or 1825. The only exact date of birth is listed on her Memorial as 17 Oct 1824. Until a birth record can be located that date can be listed as an estimate. The alternate date of birth above can be listed as a Research Note. .
Bennett-7459 and Bennett-18279 are not ready to be merged because: There are many multi-generational issues with this family which was imported from a 2014 GEDCOM by a member whose account is in now closed. Give the PMs a chance to cleaned up not just this profile but those for the rest of the family as well.
There are two issues to be resolved first:
1. The date of death listed above is the date the obit was published. Her death was on the previous Tuesday, 15 Oct 1893.
2. The Census data estimates her birth in either 1824 or 1825. The only exact date of birth is listed on her Memorial as 17 Oct 1824. Until a birth record can be located that date can be listed as an estimate. The alternate date of birth above can be listed as a Research Note. .
See biography of Bennett-7459 for more details.
Once these dates are changed, you can start the merge of Bennett-18279 into Bennett-7459.
If I have missed anything post a comment on Bennett-7459.
