Mott-1025 and Mott-1559 appear to represent the same person because: Sorry, I reacted too quickly. I have profiles for both branches of Motts - Long Island and Rhode Island. These two Abigails are the same person.
Mott-1559, Abigail Lydia (Mott) Moore was born on Long Island and her ancestors were from Long Island.This is according to the Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy Vol III pg. 428 https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/3753/images/quakergenvoliii-003016?pId=16857 . As one can see, it is a record the Westbury Monthly Meeting which is clearly in New York. Mott-1025 lists exactly the same source. So how can it be claimed that my Motts are from Rhode Island and his are from Long Island ? Or maybe it's vice versa which also makes no sense. Unless the source that we are both using is wrong the rejection makes no sense.
Mott-1559 and Mott-1025 do not represent the same person because: The Mott family of Long Island are not the same as the Mott family of Rhode Island. Both families have Adam Motts. See this:
Mott-1559 and Mott-1025 appear to represent the same person because: The information from both profiles is supported. The only difference is that Mott-1559 has a lot more information than Mott-1025.
