Harris-42986 and Harris-8220 appear to represent the same person because: These women have the same birth date and family. They are the same person. Only one Patience Harris shows in the birth records.

Harris-9687 and Harris-8220 appear to represent the same person because: Harris-9687 is an 'isolated profile' -- no dates, no relationships. Because we cannot delete profiles, it is suggested to merge her into a profile with a similar name. Please approve this merge in support of ridding Wikitree of these isolated profiles. Thank you.
