Oldham-834 and Odom-2007 appear to represent the same person because: Same person with different LNAB. Odom is the correct name. Other information will be selected and corrected with merge.
Odom-2007 and Oldham-834 appear to represent the same person because: Odom is the correct LNAB. The sources except for the 1840 census for her father, Richard Odom, support the Odom surname.
Odom-2007 and Oldham-834 are not ready to be merged because: The completed merge should have the surname Odom. There are a few other differences to clarify such as her Mother's given name. It should be "Unknown" Merchant instead of Jane Merchant.
Oldham-834 and Odom-2007 appear to represent the same person because: looks like duplicate family tree with slight variation in LNAB,
