Strathbogie-7 and Mar-6 do not represent the same person because: Although it seems likely that Strathbogie-7 never existed and at least can't be confirmed with any primary sources, she is not a duplicate of Mar-6 and merging them would create more problems than it might solve. Had Strathbogie-7 existed then she would be from a later generation than Mar-6

Mar-91 and Mar-6 appear to represent the same person because: These are the same person although some of the data on both profiles is incorrect.

Mark Sutherland-Fisher Genealogist of Clan Sutherland

Appears to be same as Mar-6. Same biography, marriages to Kenneth Moravia, etc. Different birthdays, but one could be a typo. I don't feel I have enough experience to double check which facts are accurate and start a merge as there appear to be duplicates for Kenneth Moravia, and a merge has been proposed for them, so it's complicated. Any help out there?

Mar-91 and De Mar-19 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, vitals, spouse
De Mar-19 and Mar-91 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same spouse
Mar-10 cannot have been the father of Mar-6, as he died 36 years before she was born. in addition, Helen was not the wife of Mar-10. For these reasons, I am removing Mar-10 as father.
