Howdy, Fellow Researchers: In searching for HUGH DONNITHORNE on familysearch.org, I find these 3 records referenced. What is the possibility that these 3 Hughs are the same? [ I have deleted categories that had no info posted to save space.] And, assuming they are recording the same Hugh, to what do you attribute the small differences in the information? Thanks to all for all your postings all the time! I love it here!

I would say this is the same data but I have no idea why they have 3 transcriptions - if you look at the information about the 3 collections they all say the same thing i.e. that they were transcribed from microfilm of the original documents. The difference in the date looks as if is a mistranscription. If you look at the original image on familysearch Pilot site you can see why the transcribers were unsure as to whether it was the 4th or 9th. I think it is a 9. The entry is on Image 28. At least now the images are available we can check!
