Neither profile have birth records to prove her last name at birth or parents. However, they share the same children.

If there are no sources for her given name at birth, then her LNAB should be changed to Unknown. A note can be placed in the biography that some unsourced trees have her maiden name as Pryor. They clearly are the same person and need to be merged. The husband also had duplicate profiles as do some of the children.
