I tried once again to fix this and merge them. I can do nothing. LEAVE ME OUT OF IT!

How could Thomas Dean be married to two women with the same name? This profile isn’t sourced. The sources I posted on the other profile show that the children belong to the other Martha. If they are two different women, it’s the other one who is the correct wife. All the documentation is attached to the other Martha - birth, marriage, children, possible death. The only discrepancy between the two profiles is birth. They may be two different women, but not married to the same man.

The birthdate on the FAG profile is unsourced, there's no reason to believe that this "Martha Dean Carter" was born in 1732 - that should be REMOVED from this profile. All information should be removed from this profile, as there is no primary documentation. As a result, the only fact we have is that she was married to Thomas Dean, which would imply she should be merged with Carter-28735

Carter-28735 and Carter-26412 appear to represent the same person because: These are clearly the same woman. Same place, same husband, same death.
