I am looking for the Ancient Planter Richard Birchett. I am finding Geni profiles of people in the right place at the right time but the name is spelled Burchett. Should I add them and then we disambiguate as we source the profiles?

I am also finding Burditt and Burdett as similar spellings for our Ancient Planter William Burditt.

Regarding Pettiplace Clause -- Not finding this profile on Geni.

This book gives his last name as Close and shows several variations for spelling of first name.

I know that I have found my Bouldin ancestors in source documentation spelled various ways. ie. (Boulding, Bouldinge, Bolden and even Baldwin)
