Research Notes
Since October 2018 this profile and that of a duplicate (McGuire-673) have been in either an 'Unmerged Match' or 'Pending Merge' status. They clearly represent the same person - both having supposedly married William Poulton (1804 - abt. 1887) (although there are no sources cited or thus far located to support the marriage details shown).
However, both this and the duplicate profile have different parents. In the absence of any sources to support either it might be best to disassociate both sets once the merge is completed. This Research Note is to ensure that their details are preserved in case they need to be re-associated in the future.

While there is an issue with there being different parents, these 2 profiles undoubtedly represent the same woman as the are both associated with the same husband and cite the same death record.
Unfortunately, neither have any cited primary sources in support of her birth or marriage to William Poulton. There are no records on NSW BDM of them ever marrying in NSW.
However, this profile does at least cite some information on Ancestry, which is not necessarily a reliable source.
Do you have any suggestions on how this can all be resolved?
