Hickox-474 and Taylor-36689 are not ready to be merged because: Need to confirm last name at birth
posted by Merryl Hunkin
Hickox-474 and Taylor-36689 appear to represent the same person because: Both married to John Betts, one birth year is an estimated and can be ignored in favor of the profile with info about her first marriage
posted by J (Kelley) Grohsmeyer
Hickox-474 and Taylor-36689 appear to represent the same person because: Leah Hickok and Leah Taylor are the same person. Leah Taylor married Carter Hickok in 1764 and then Carter died and in 1773 the widow Leah Hickok married John Betts, Jr. In 1771, she is the daughter of Noah Taylor and is mentioned in his estate distribution (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G92K-Y5Q3)
