Clearly Mehitable was a daughter of Richard and Elizabeth (Ingraham) Bullock. The question is : Did this Mehitable Bullock marry John West? I don't have access to Robert's "Ancestors of American Presidents" so can't be sure but reading John's profile, it seems to indicate that John's wife's surname is unknown. The Mayflower Families sketch mentions that no further records were found for Mehitable Bullock. The various probate documents don't seem to ever list the children of Bullock, just calls them children. Torrey's NE Marriages list's John West's wife as Mehitable ______.

The sensible thing to do would be to de-conflate these two women. Create a new profile for Mary Unknown to be the wife of West and the mother of his children.

Vital Records of Rehoboth has Mehettabell Bullock and Jonathan Thurber, both of Rehoboth, married by Rev. David Turner March 11, 1723-4. This is also after the death of this Mehitable.

I think there may be two women mixed here. In the Vital Record of Rehoboth, Mehitalbe Bullock married a different man. Torrey, not Roberts give a maiden name for the wife of John West. The marriage date listed is not consistent with the death of this woman, nor the birth of her children. Can you take a look at your records? thanks

Bullock-474 and Bullock-112 appear to represent the same person because: Same person, same marriage, same birth dates. Each profile does have information that the other is missing, so the merged file will be more complete.
