Benajah Geer was born October 2, 1737 in Preston, New London County, Connecticut. However, this may have been the date on which he was christened, with his birth obviously sometime before that.[1]

Geer-287 and Geer-284 appear to represent the same person because: Hi, these appear to be duplicate profiles of the same person but have been set as unmerged matches for some reason. Could the PM take a look and consider if a merger is appropriate? Thanks for your consideration in advance.
Geer-287 and Geer-284 are not ready to be merged because: These may be the same person but we need more proof. We have a record for the 1737 birth but not the 1744 birth. The Benajah listed in the Ancestral File (2797-W6C) has been corrected from 1744 to 1737 since the 1737 birth record was attached as a source. Someone may have made an error and it has been carried forward. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
