I connected an additional profile for daughter Maria -- Swartwout-402 -- as an additional child. This daughter is one who might have been baptized twice, but I think it's more likely that the child baptized in 1741 died, which indicates that a second profile should be maintained for her.

If Swartwout-402 is kept as a separate profile from Swartout-35, the date(s) should be adjusted.

Decker-113 and Decker-1093 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same parents and spouse.
