Widdowson-1184 and Widdowson-1091 appear to represent the same person because: These profiles are the duplicate fathers for duplicate profiles of son Arthur William Widdowson, see the other merge just proposed.
Widdowson-1334 and Widdowson-1184 appear to represent the same person because: Both are profiles for Thomas Widdowson born in 1828 or 29 in Cropwell Butler. The Thomas Widdowson who married Elizabeth Lowe has a marriage record stating that his father was John Widdowson, a Cordwainer (shoe maker) and the other profile links to the 1841 census for Cropwell Butler where Thomas is living with his father John, a shoe maker. Therefore clearly the same individual.
