Please would an arborist help merge Rachel McMunn?

Question

It is stated that there are three of them, McMunn-47, 48 and 61 all of whom belong to the same father and different mothers. I have my doubts.

question about the 'McMunn's. Did any of yours live in Co Sligo Ireland mid-1800s. There was a Doctor McMunn there who married a Beatty. Regards Peter D Beattie (UK). 

Maybe check with him?

Do you have an address?

His Wiki Tree ID is Beattie-247, if that is what you meant.  Otherwise, no.

Answer 1

Looking at the three profile sI would guess there have been mistakes made for two or three of the mothers. As Mary said make them unmerged matches, and contact the PM to discuss the matter, the PM is active, only last week she added you to a trusted list for one of her profiles. As she uploaded all three she is the one who may know most of where the information came from.

As all three contain no sources except for Ancestry Family Trees references, which is totally unreliable, I would say there is no evidence for any mother, but perhaps the PM knows more and has not added it yet.

Answer 2

Sir William,

instead of using a merge, match them instead until changes are made for the mother in question.  It could be spelling, dates and different first names.  Once the profile managers are notified, let them handle the differences and work it out between them.

They are both "managed" by the Canterville ghost!

Ha ha!

Ditto!

ROFL!   Ok, Sir William, you got me there.    I would request an open profile on both pages if run by the same manager then, and adopt the profiles once they are available, make the changes and put them back as orphans until family adopts them.

Unfortuneatly there are three profiles and three mothers, they cannot be merged until the the mothers are sorted out. The profiles cannot be orphaned as the manager of all three is an active member, just not here every day like some of us. If she does not know which is the mother I would suggest removing them all as mother and leaving a note in the profiles that they may have been Rachels mother, also noting as Tom said one may have been 10 years old when Rachel was born.

Answer 3

Martha Hamilton seems to have been ten years old when Rachel was born.  If this can be documented, it would eliminate her as a possible mother.
