Trying to merge duplicates; came across conflicting parents for William's father Edward:

Which is accurate? Thanks.

Have you checked for records at  familysearch.org ?

There are Ancestral Files there: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.2.1/SPWQ-PQW  ,

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.2.1/SPWR-93Y are two examples. 

 

 

Sorry, Frank. I don't trust Ancestral Files. They can be used for clues, but not usually for confirming facts as they typically do not cite any sources.

Also the examples you link to don't include any parents for Edward father of William.

I know some can feel as leary about wikipedia pages, but the sources on him are excellent - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Hutchinson_%28mercer%29

and this page has good dates.

Sooo... I would say; merge making Anne the wife. I only know that she was a widow when they married, and the previous husband's last name was Clint, thus in church records she was called "Widow Clint".

At this time, I have no record of a marriage to Margaret Graye.
