Spinney-321 and Ryder-1772 appear to represent the same person because: Rebecca is intended to be the wife of Benjamin Spinney. The death record of her daughter Rose gives Rebecca's name as Ryder. But here it looks to also be Spinney. I didn't see any sources in the Spinney profile indicating her LNAB or proof of parents. But as this isn't my direct line, please merge in which ever way is correct based on sources.
