Comments on Amelia Milly Milly (Gentry) Leach

Question

I have been trying to get these two profiles merged for a month, but need someone else to do complete it. Finally, today, someone responded, but didn't merge them and set them as an unmerged match because they weren't sure about the relationships, but it's pretty clear they are the same person. It has been 30 days already. There was some confusion over a sister-in-law - but she didn't marry James Leach - And their dates aren't identical.

[[Gentry-2761]] and Leach-4316 appear to represent the same person because: I'm not sure why these haven't been merged - or what the confusion is over the relationships.. They are clearly the same person. James Powell Leach didn't marry two Amelia "Milly" Gentry (G). ''Leach'' was not her maiden name - it was Gentry - and she married a Langston after his death. The two birthdates are the same - as are the death dates. Can someone please merge these.

Answer 1

I noticed the two profiles have different birth locations and the [[Gentry-2761|Amelia Milly Milly (Gentry) Leach (1801-abt.1895)]] profile has a researchers note attached stating "Milly later had a sister-in-law who had the same name and it has caused a lot of confusion." They were both born in 1801 as well. Perhaps this is the reason for the hesitation. I know you mentioned the sister in law but I'm just wondering if the different birth locations are causing hesitations.
