UNKNOWN-60137 and Arnold-222 appear to represent the same person because: All facts match. Last name at birth is either Arnold or Arnell according to the references.
The note in the biography shows that the LNAB (Last Name at Birth) should be either Arnold or Arnell. The system wasn't able to parse it due to the parenthesis so it set the name to Unknown.
When you have a minute, could you please update the LNAB? It can only be done by the Profile Manager.
