McCarty-2534 and McCarty-2014 appear to represent the same person because: they were both born in South Carolina, both apparently married a man name Schilling, both had a son named Jacob Schilling, both died in 1853 in Washington, Louisiana. The only detail to work out is the birth date is 8 years apart. But with everything else considered, they are the same person, and one, if not both of those birth dates are wrong. Oh, and neither has any sources!
