Biography

http://dunhamwilcox.net/me/me_bio_bacon.htm (I) Michael (1) (or Mighill) Bacon, born probably in county Suffolk, England, held, traditions says, the office of captain of a company of yeomanry in county Suffolk. He went from the north of England to the north of Ireland about 1633, and came to this country about seven years later, settling, about 1640, in Dedham, where he died April 18, 1648. "Dedham Records, Town and Selectmen," has the following: "Agreed vpon that the Towne of Dedham shall enterteyne Mr. Samuell Cooke togehter with his estate And also Mr. Smith & Mr. Bacon all from Ireland & afford to them such accomodacons of vpland & Medowe as their estates shall Requier." From a record made the following month it appears that the wife of Mr. Bacon preced him to Dedham. He was one of the signers of the church covenant of Dedham. In 1644 he granted land to the town for one of the highways. His will, dated April 14, 1648, mentions all his children, except Alice, who died the previous month. His inventory, made April 20, 1649, amounted to 54 pounds 15s 4d. His wife Alice died April 2, 1648. Children, prob. b. in England: Michael, Daniel, John, Alice, Sarah

I don't see any reason or even mention of the surname Blower. Has someone gotten the 2nd wife of Michel the first, Grace Bloweres, conflated with this wife of 2nd Michael:? Even the dozen "sources" used on the Ancestry trees all say Alice ___ even though the trees say Alice Blower.posted Apr 15, 2018 by Anne B Jillaine SmithSteve, changing an LNAB is the technological equivalent of merging two profiles, which is why, as Michael points out, we seek to confirm the LNAB before completing a merge. And we haven't yet confirmed they're the same person. Michael Bacon had a spouse named Alice, and it looks like one Alice Blower was born to Thomas and Susannah. We need to confirm that these two Alices are the same person.posted Apr 03, 2018 by Jillaine Smith Michael StillsA LNAB should be decided BEFORE the merge. There is a technical reason for this as it reduces the number of redirects to the final, agreed upon profile.posted Apr 03, 2018 by Michael Stills Steve SelbredeIt seems to me that two profiles should be merged whenever they are clearly the same person. The question of what the LNAB was is a completely different issue, which can be resolved after any merge.
If the standard is to never do anything until we can "prove" who someone was, few things will ever get done.
A solution to issues like this is simple: merge the two profiles, keeping Blower as LNAB, but marking the parents as "uncertain" with a note regarding any controversy.

The first four sources on this profile are *highly* derivative and untrustworthy. Until we can prove who she was, I've project-protected Unknown-187332 and marked the proposed merge as unmatched.posted Apr 03, 2018 by Jillaine Smith Steve SelbredeUNKNOWN-187332 and Blower-51 appear to represent the same person because: Same person. Note that the source in Unknown refers to her children, which are listed in Blower-51. The death dates are just 4 days apart, April 2 may be the most likely. The 1589 DOB is supported by the Geni source.posted Apr 03, 2018 by Steve Selbrede Jillaine SmithWe need proof of the maiden name of the wife of Michael Bacon.posted Jan 02, 2017 by Jillaine Smith[Living Stone]Blowers-79 and Blower-51 appear to represent the same person because: Independent research supports correct surname of Blower, born 2 Jan 1589 and died 29 Mar 1648.
