Ennis-326 and Ennis-1698 appear to represent the same person because: These two people are the same woman. I accidentally added her before realizing she had a profile.

Ennis-326 and Innis-21 appear to represent the same person because: Ennis and Innis are spelling variants that were frequently interchangeable in the 18th century and earlier. Per the MilesFiles (http://espl-genealogy.org/MilesFiles/site/p822.htm#i82169), the Parthenia who married John Smock, Innis-21, was the daughter of William Ennis and Percis Johnson., as is Ennis-326. There's no sources for either one other than the sources I just added to Innis-21 before realizing there was a duplicate.
