Fanning-2035 and Fanning-955 appear to represent the same person because: they share a similar birth year and the same spouse, Humphrey Brown, Jr.

* Jonathan Fanning's will mentions Mary Brown. Court records for Humphrey Brown mention David Fanning, Mary's brother. I have DNA matches with 4 of Mary's sisters. 2 are half sisters. At Find-A-Grave, she's identified as Anna.
