A mother's death date should not be before one of her children's birth dates.

DeWitt-1433 and DeWitt-22 appear to represent the same person because: They are one in the same person, I attempted different name spellings but she did not appear as a possible match. I am sorry!

Please merge DeWitt-1433 and DeWitt-22 - they are one in the same. I attempted name spellings of VanAken, DeWitt, De Witt and Van Auken but she was not recognized and her information did not come up for comparison. I have noticed some DeWitts are De_Witt-# and some are DeWitt-#; yet they are the same family. Can we reach a decision on this please. This is my second merge for the same family and I sincerely apologize but it would help if we could uniform the DeWitt or De_Witt - any ideas and suggestions would be awesome. Thank you!
