Davis-22625 and Davis-17523 appear to represent the same person because: same name, exact same spouse on both profiles, same birth location... if these are not the same people the spouse should be removed from one. Thank you!
Davis-24397 and Davis-17523 do not represent the same person because: I have thoroughly researched my Barbara Davis-24397 and although some of the info matches not enought for me to accept a merge. Also I know that Davis-24397 is buried in Carroll County Arkansas not Alabama. I have seen her headstone.
Probable duplicate with same husband
