Battman-46 and Batman-184 appear to represent the same person because: Both profiles are for the William Batman/Battman/Bateman who was buried in Bitton, Gloucestershire in 1815. Both profiles have the same spouse and children. The father was unlikely to be Stanton Battman of Redcliffe, Bristol, as his son William died in infancy. The father is possibly Samuel Battman of Bitton, Gloucesterhisre as shown in Batman-184.
