Mueller-1149 and Müller-8063 appear to represent the same person because: Both profiles are for Ursula, daughter of John (George) Müller. Original German spelling of surname likely to have been Müller or Möller (per 1752 immigration records). Mueller-1149 is unsourced, text from Müller-8063 should be retained.

Muller-11101 and Müller-8063 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate. Original German spelling is Müller rather than Muller. Sources for Müller-8063 indicate birth in Europe and immigration in 1752, and these details should be retained after merge.

Muller-8061 and Müller-8063 appear to represent the same person because: Both profiles are for Ursula, daughter of John George Müller and Barbara Gloninger. Original German spelling would have been Müller rather than Mueller. Egle records Ursula's birth as 1736 in one publication, and 1742 in another. Suggest split the difference to 1739 in the absence of any primary evidence to confirm.
