Ray-11388 and Ray-2828 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth date and place. Death date differs but there is only one source for Ray-2828 which gives the birth of two of her children as being after her death. The 1744 death date has no source and is erroneous. See https://www.seekingmyroots.com/members/files/G058.pdf which gives her two additional children, the last birth 1753. The Tower name is also wrong. Her sister Mary who was born two years earlier married a Tower and that may be where the confusion arose.
