There are merges on Mary COLEY that have been done today that look to be incorrect.

Mary COLEY (wife of David MARCHANT, George MARCHANT and Robert
CLARKE) born 1764 Bristol

Merge 1 - merged with Mary Ann CLARKE (wife of Robert CLARKE) born 1764 Bristol

Merge 2 - merged with Mary Ann CLARKE nee PALMER born 1764 Bristol died 1786 Bristol - wife of Robert CLARKE

Merge 3 - merged with Mary CLARKE nee WILKINSON - no dates - wife of Robert CLARKE

Merge 4 - merged with Mary Anne .// born 1764 Bristol - wife of Robert CLARKE

There are 3 different maiden names - so I will reverse all the merges so that we can determine which, if any, are correct.

Robert CLARKE also has merges that do not look correct and will be reversed
