I have proposed merges with two very obviously duplicate profiles, Gray-10378 and Gray-33311. One of these merges - for Gray-10378 - I accidentally proposed twice: I had too many windows open in the my browser and had a senior moment.

I have attached parents and changed the LNAB - Keith was her mother's LNAB not her father's. I have found two other profiles for her and merges need to be sorted.

Gray-6644 and Gray-2082 appear to represent the same person because: Both daughter of Andrew, 2nd Lord Gray. Sources on Gray-6644 suggest that the mother is Janet Keith. If you agree these are duplicates, please merge into the details on Gray-6644. Thanks for reviewing.
