Hi, I'm Louann and I am one of the many Data Doctors here on WikiTree.

This profile currently has a "Suggestion" that needs the Profile Manager to take care of. It is a "DBE 109 Suggestion" because WikiTree Policy "Profiles of people who were born over 150 years ago or who died over 100 years ago must be Open."

So please change this profiles "Privacy" setting to "Open"

For help: 1. Here is a quick description of DBE 109 suggestion and how to correct it: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:DBE_109

2. Also there is short WikiTree YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhhelLj2aZw&list=PLEqK4ICkQWXRxxQj3EBXoOh-3NOS5HH4R

Thanks in advance for your cooperation, it is truly appreciated!
