Jefferson-2438 and Jefferson-514 appear to represent the same person because: same mother, same husband, children need validation
posted by Robin Lee
Jefferson-1422 and Jefferson-514 appear to represent the same person because: working off an abstract of the 1743 will of Francis Harris, I discovered duplicate profiles for his parents (Francis names Martha Pasture his sibling). Please merge. Thanks!

P.S. birth was probably closer to 1670, given her husband's estimated birth year of 1669 & their estimated marriage date of 1689.

Warning: Check the data.
  • A child's birth date should not be before a parent is six years old.

Jefferson-814 and Jefferson-514 appear to represent the same person because: not sure either birth year is appropriate. Duplicate of husband Thomas Harris had b 1669, but that's a bit young for 1685 marriage too.
