Pearleen Elves

Neil-280 and Neeld-74 appear to represent the same person because: In many of the Quaker Meeting Minutes, Jane's surname is spelled Neeld or Neel. I propose that Neel is likely the proper spelling of her surname. Neeld spell this way is of Dutch origin and Pennsylvania is where the Dutch settled.

Neil-280 and Neeld-74 do not represent the same person because: Mistakenly ignored this when it should have been merged.
