I propose to detach this Mary Lort (Lord) from Thomas Coleman and return her to "Maine". And create a "Mary Unknown" that is the wife of Thomas Coleman of King and Queen County, as listed in his Will. I will proceed on 27 Feb 2023 unless there is an objection, with reliable sources to maintain the existing marriage and parents of Mary.
I believe this may be the right order of things. Most of the profiles are already available and I am requesting merges to blend it all together. Most of this is based on the will of Thomas Coleman Sr. (1652 - 1748) and on

Lord-3393 and Lort-19 do not represent the same person because: Thomas Coleman of King and Queen County, husband of Mary, and Thomas Coleman of Gloucester County, husband of Elizabeth, are being conflated. Elizabeth is not Mary.
