Witmer-343 and Widmer-232 appear to represent the same person because: Problems with parentage have been addressed. One profile had listed grandmother as his mother.

The bio on Witmer-343 has been moved to Widmer-136 where it belongs.

These profiles are now ready to merge. Widmer seems most common spelling and is used by listed parents.

If bio is correct, then son Johann Peter belongs with Samuel as well.

This entire biography and sources are for someone else, not the man and family listed in the data fields above.

They are for a Samuel Witmer, wife Barbara. I think it is the correct text for Widmer-136 That is Samuel and his daughter Anna Barbara is shown with the same husband as in this text - Drollinger.

Widmer-232 and Witmer-343 are not ready to be merged because: Serious research issues.
posted by Ellen Smith
Witmer-343 and Widmer-232 appear to represent the same person because: Same name (variant spellings), same father (albeit different profiles), same birth data.

Mothers don't match, and neither the mother nor the father named in the text of Witmer-343 is among the parents on either profile.

I'm proposing a merge here, but I'm going to convert it to an unmerged match immediately due to the research issues I see here.

I removed Anna Catherine Bachman as Johan Peter's wife, as she married a different Peter Wittmer.

Also removed the Jul 28, 1792 death in Manor Twp. as this also refers to a different Peter Witmer, born in 1712.
