James-9925 and James-3 appear to represent the same person because: Similar death details. Please merge if these are the same person, or reject the match if you think they are different. Many thanks.

I have searched for evidence that she was born in Pembrokeshire in Wales and personally can find none. Please can you add it to the Profile. Do you have information that she was sixteen when she married? That would be good too.

Many thanks

James-3 and James-2331 appear to represent the same person because: Needs to be merged / cleaned up. Either two different women (with different fathers) but not both married to Griscom, or same woman and one of the fathers is wrong. Thanks.
