Following the successful merge of Pepperrell-13 into Pepperell-146 I changed the name at birth to Pepperrell resulting in the current profile.

Pepperrell-13 and Pepperell-146 appear to represent the same person because: Hi Valerie,

I am the administrator for the Pepperrell ONS and I would like to suggest a merge of these two profiles. Pepperell-146 was an orphan profile that I have just adopted but it is definitely the same as Pepperrell-13 that you manage. One of the unfortunate issues with Wikitree is the use of surname as an ID particularly as Pepperrell and Pepperell is often interchanged based on the scribe recording the event.

FYI: Andrew Pepperrell and Jane Elliott had only two daughters, Sarah (b. 04 Dec 1708; m. Charles Frost III, 12 Sep 1723; d. 24 Jan 1791) and Margery (b. 25 Mar 1712; m. Capt. William Wentworth, 02 Oct 1729; d. 1748) before he died in 1713. Source: Howard, Cecil Hampden Cutts. The Pepperrells in America. Salt Lake City, UT: Filmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah, 1986.

Could I request that you add me to the Trusted List so that I can add the profile to the Pepperrell ONS?

Best regards, Phil
