Harpold Pickens-1 and Pickens-907 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles represent the same individual. The proper last name at birth is Pickens. The name Harpold stated in profile 1 is not Deborah's last name at birth but the the maiden name of Deborah's mother who was the daughter of Adam Harpold and Dorothea Roush and who married John Pickens March 2, 1830 in Meigs County, Ohio.
