Jerry, do you have some sources for John Jr. that you haven't added yet?
The match came about when I started to add profiles for his wives. After entering the basic information, matches came up for both wives. These matching profiles were attached to McClure-2991.
McClure-2991 does have some sources, and Fred removed the "Dr" and "C" from the name due to lack of reliable source, to facilitate the merge.
Do either of you disagree that this is the same person?
The source I added has information about spouses (and children, but I didn't go that deep for this pass), so I added these profiles where they were missing.
