Gilliam-2668 and Gilliam-186 appear to represent the same person because: Same persons same spouse.

They're probably uncle and nephew. I'd suspected a 1781 marriage was too early for Charles and Elizabeth Gilliam's son. I'll remove the marriage to Gilliam-2668.

Gilliam-2668 and Gilliam-186 do not represent the same person because: Archer Gilliam (Gilliam-2668) is the son of Archelaus Gilliam's (Gilliam-186) brother Charles. Some researchers have conflated the two, yet they seem to have passed away in different decades in different counties.
