Thanks for approving the merge. Cleanup after merge complete.
Hi Carolyn, Oh my, it is so hard to be without a computer. Hope you get yours up and working soon. In the meantime no big deal about the Meadows merge. Meadows-413 and Meadows-5. Whenever you get a chance.
Meadows-413 and Meadows-5 appear to represent the same person because: have the same husband, dates of birth and death although approximate are close
Thanks Bobby for merging Mollie and Mary. I cleaned up the gedcom clutter and added a bio with a few sources.
Meadows-5 and Meadows-15 appear to represent the same person because: duplicated
posted by Andrea (Stawski) Pack
Meadows-5 and Meadows-13 appear to represent the same person because: One is named Mary the other Mollie, however Mollie is a nickname for Mary. They both were imported in a gedcom from James Walter Swartz. I think they are duplicates and need to me merged.
Meadows-413 and Meadows-1498 appear to represent the same person because: same name, same husband just no dates on one
