Viaud-14 and Bourg-804 appear to represent the same person because: Viaud is mother's LNAB, entered by mistake. She should be Bourg. They are also the same as Bourg-1110, who will also be merged into Bourg-804. Thanks!
For the merge with Bourg-804, do you want to unlock this one so as to merge into the lower profile number? They're ready to merge-- I'll leave them to you.
To fix the merge correctly, I cancelled Viaud-14 into Bourg-1110 and re-proposed it as Viaud-14 into Bourg-804, and set Bourg-804 as PPP to ensure correct LNAB. I then removed PPP from this profile. I'll get them merged on Friday if Cindy doesn't beat me to it. Thanks!
Viaud-14 and Bourg-1110 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same birthdate and place, same parents. Viaud-14 was originally connected to grandparents so was given wrong LNAB. Correct LNAB is Bourg.
Marguerite Broussard-319 and Helio Viaud-9 are her grandparents. Acadian Memorial
