Hi! Teri gave Robert the middle name of "Sens" and marked most of his info as certain. I reverted the profile, as no support for the middle name (or the certainty of it) was given.

Cheers, Liz

Jones-27213 and Jones-3037 appear to represent the same person because: they're married to the same woman and nothing indicates that they're two different Robert Joneses.
