Smith-100802 and Smith-100559 appear to represent the same person because: Same vitals and same wife. Please merge Smith-100802 into Smith-100559. Thank you!

I don't believe Joseph Smith-100559 was the son of Joseph Smith-100770 and Mary Fones-156, or the brother of Joseph Smith-100802. Mary would have been 65 at the time of his birth and that seems unlikely.
