Lykins-1028 and Lykins-88 appear to represent the same person because: same parents

Lykins-1028 and Lykins-88 do not represent the same person because: These two have the same names, and from the same area. But there isn't any documentation showing they are the same person.

I'd like to see some sources for Lykins-88 to be able to compare them better. It's a little hard to judge either way when there are no sources. What data is documented for Lykins-1028 shows a birth in 1812 or 1814 which fits with Isaac's children. I can't well prove that they are the same when I can't see any sources for one of them - there's nothing to contradict.

FamilySearch seems to think they are the same person. See https://www.familysearch.org/tree/pedigree/landscape/KG98-J9Q.

BTW, I'm leaning to the 1812 date even though FindAGrave has 1814, because if she was born in 1814, then she would have been 13 years old when married in 1827. Since we don't have a birth record that I've seen, we can't be sure. FamilySearch agrees with the 1812 date. But the census records suggest a date of 1809.
