Feg-37 and Feg-27 do not represent the same person because: different children and spouse
posted by Jim Rathosky Jr
Feg-37 and Feg-27 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same name, identical birth date and places, and same death. They both married Shaffers. BUT they are two different people. Do NOT merge. Just know that one of them has the wrong information.
