Broughton-448 and Broughton-439 appear to represent the same person because: Data on both profiles overlap, but represent the same person. Mary Broughton, married James Bennett (Bennett-6770, also duplicated in Bennett-6869) in 1674 and had Mary (Bennett) Field (Bennett-6868) who married John Field (Field-1631). James died in 1676. Our subject then married Benoni Stebbins and had issue with him before her death in 1689. Several sources are available, but it would make more sense to add them after a merge.
