Martin-45442 and Martin-21440 appear to represent the same person because: same person

Mel (Gilbert) Lambert

Martin-22636 and Martin-21440 appear to represent the same person because: These appear to be the same person. The husbands match. There is a difference in the death date on Martin- 21440 but when you read the sources for her you see that the actual death date is the same as Martin-22636

I have proposed a merge of the husband and have source cites that I would like to add to these profiles. I would like to be added to the manager list or the trusted list so I can continue working on my DNA lineage.

Thanks Mel
