Sweet-2900 and Sweet-242 do not represent the same person because: I proposed this merger in haste, it appears that the Susannah's in question are two separate people. The Susannah who was the daughter of John Sweet and Lydia Whaley married a Thomas Grennell. This can't be the same person who married Joseph Draper. I apologize for proposing the merge.
