update: merge completed (dates were same when merged)
Cocke-551 and Cocke-295 appear to represent the same person because: these duplicates for James Powell Cocke should be merged too. Not sure which date is correct, but the Geni source given for the 1751 date shows location of death as Malvern Hills, Henrico County, not Brunswick county.
Cocke-548 and Cocke-295 appear to represent the same person because: don't know which birth year is correct, but these brothers should be merged. If 1684, then his parents marriage (given as 1687 on Brazier-470) should be pushed back.
Cocke-548 and Cocke-551 are not ready to be merged because: sorry - there's a son James attached to a duplicate Mary with a lower-numbered profile. Both of these should be merged directly into Cocke-295 instead of with each other & then into Cocke-295.
Cocke-548 and Cocke-551 appear to represent the same person because: these brothers with same death years should be merged... I removed birth date from one (1770) & made a note in the text.
