Daggett-339 and Doggett-5 appear to represent the same person because: duplicates

Doggett-5 and Daggett-806 appear to represent the same person because: no source provided for the variation in LNAB, which is the only difference, Doggett is the only sourced spelling although descendants used Daggett.

There are two John Daggett/Doggett profiles that need to be merged (they share the same death date and there were not two sons named John). But... in which direction as LNAB?

Same question for the two Josephs.

This profile is associated with an unsourced Familysearch record which is inaccurate due to more recent research. Since both John Daggett/Doggett profiles share the same death date they should be merged. But... in which direction as LNAB?

Anderson's Great Migration Begins, p. 568-70, gives:

John Doggett of Watertown (1630), Rehoboth (1646) and Martha's Vineyard (1651): born ca. 1600, his origins are unknown. His will, dated 13 May 1673 and proved 04 Jun 1673, made bequests to his "beloved wife" (unnamed); sons John, Joseph, Thomas; daughters Elizabeth and Hephzibah. Died between 13 May 1673 and 26 May 1673, dates of execution and proving of will. First wife's name is unknown, she died by 1667. Second wife Bathshebath Prat, widow of Joshua Pratt, married 29 Aug 1667 at Plymouth.

Rebecca Bailey was the wife of John Doggett of Marshfield, a different man. I'm detaching her from Doggett-5.
