Lee-34305 and Lee-3828 are not ready to be merged because: need to revisit profiles since parents were removed

Lee-34305 and Lee-3828 appear to represent the same person because: part of duplicated family, father duplicated, census listed in Lee-34305 are not relevant since they are after his death date, which is unsourced. Uncertain parent of linked child which is different issue needing sources. Neither profile has any reliable sourcing, other than the Will of Edward Spearman that mentions Solomon's son William, which has now been linked to all profiles
