Both have fathers Timothy, one has Joanna as mother the other Ann. Joanna could easily be shortened to Ann.

Brooks-13558 and Brooks-8557 are not ready to be merged because: Names of parents. One says "Timothy and Ann" while the other says "Thomas and Phoebe Ann". Mother could have easily gone by middle name, which happened a lot, but I don't know about the father's name.
