Adkins-5220 and Adkins-535 appear to represent the same person because: Owen Adkins is the same on both profiles. Adkins-535 lists Nary Unknown as Owens spouse. Nary's last name was Damron as listed on Adkins-5220. [I adopted Adkins-5220, it was an Orphan profile].

Spouse will need merging, also.

Thank you Rick. I've merged Owen and added a bio/ sources and adopted the Unknown Nary profile which had her first name and last name backwards. I've proposed their merge.
