Unknown-350246 and Sarratt-50 appear to represent the same person because: Death record for Pinkney Pennington (died 4 March 1920 in Birmingham, Jefferson, Alabama) lists parents as Jessie Pennington and Molly Sarratt. Death record for Nide Summers (died 30 Aug 1919 in Vernon, Lamar, Alabama) lists parents as Jessie Pennington and Polly Surratt. Both records can be found on FamilySearch, where I have attached them to the profile of Mary Margaret "Mollie" Surratt for easy access.

I think it is safe to say that Jesse Pennington's wife was Mary Sarratt and that these two profiles thus represent the same person.
