Parker-21426 and Parker-2205 are not ready to be merged because: They were born and died in two different colonies and their birth dates are 50 years apart.
Parker-21426 and Parker-2205 do not represent the same person because: Very different birth data
posted by Neal Parker
Parker-8037 and Parker-2205 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate.

Parker-16962 and Parker-8037 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate.

My understanding is that if we think they may be the same merge guidelines will tell us to leave as an unmerged match. I thought rejected was for individuals with similar names that are definitely not the same person.

the mother is impossible and should be disconnected
posted by Vincent Piazza
They may be a match but, fathers are a rejected match by a very good genealogist, mothers do not match, birth dates are not close, birthplaces are also different. Death place and year match but it is most likely an Ancestry public tree mess that needs some research and removal of either mothers or husband. They could well be cousins with the similarity of names but both Elizabeth and Parker are fairly common names.

Parker-16962 and Parker-8037 are not ready to be merged because: These should be merged only after more research to add sources for discussion/evidence of various conflicting details.

Parker-16962 and Parker-8037 are not ready to be merged because: These seem to be the same person, but one profile must be wrong in particular details, which will have to be researched and reconciled before the merge.

Parker-16962 and Parker-8037 appear to represent the same person because: Please merge Parker-16962 into Parker-8037 f they are two profiles for the same person. The mission on WikiTree, different from other family tree websites, is to have only one profile per person. Duplicates must be merged. It helps me to re-read the Honor Code from time to time to help me keep focused on the goals of WikiTree, and to remind me of my commitment to collaboration and the one worldwide family tree. Thank you!

Parker-16962 and Parker-8037 appear to represent the same person because: Please merge Parker-16962 into Parker-8037 if they are two profiles for the same person. I canceled the rejected match and reinitiated the merge request.
