Whitfield-3745 and Whitfield-323 appear to represent the same person because: In Emma's book, she is listed as Elizabeth Whitfield. It also says She was often called Junie. Her findagrave page/headstone list her as Bettie Junie. Elizabeth/Bettie/Junie submitted the info. for the book. I think they are the same person. Make her record Elizabeth Bettie Junie - what do you think?
Yes, they are the same, I was surprised with the duplicate profile which you created.

Her given name was Elizabeth, but went by Bettie and Junie. The name inscribed on her tombstone is Bettie "Junie" Whitfield.

I didn't realize they were the same person when I created her record.
