This profile formerly contained information about an Anna Groff who was born in 1725, married a David Martin in 1742, had several children (some of whom are still attached to this profile), and died in 1759. Removal of her data from this profile made a bad situation worse. When you see a "CONFLATED" template on a profile, it means that the multiple people who have been combined in the profile need to be separated out. Removing the data for one of them makes a bad situation worse, not better.

Anna is now represented by profile Groff-987.

Anna Groff-85 is connected to two David Martins (father and son) as her husband. I think she was married only to the father and not also to the son.

The elder David was born in 1691 and died in 1784. Because Anna died in 1759 (during the lifetime of David Sr.), it is very unlikely that she was the woman who married David Jr. (born 1733) in 1753, and she could not have been the mother of his children who were born between 1760 and 1775.

The text of David Jr's profile gives his wife's name as Susanna Groff. History of this page shows that a profile for Susanna Groff was merged into the profile for Anna Groff in 2012. I think that was a mistake. Groff-85 should be detached from Martin-5523 and a new profile should be created for Susanna.
