If you read all of my notes it would make sense as Barbara Bachler is misnamed Barbara Stoner on many site because of her mother's surname. Also of you read the bio under the other profile that now lists a father as Frederick (the profile was removed from the other parents for being a duplicate) but in the body of the bio it states that her parents are Johan Ludwig and Barbara....clearly the same parents as when it was proposed. There are a handful of us who have merged several of these profiles for this nuclear family and they still keep being created or transformed.
If the rejection stays in place then one will need to be removed from the other siblings as it is causing errors when working on those pages and the same goes for certain sources and persons who couldn't both be for different women.
Thanks for looking in to this.
Redwine-137 and Riedweils-1 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate. Removed incorrect parentage. Parentage is clearly listed in birth certificate found in Sources section of both profiles.
There have been so many duplicates due to a difference in her last name spellings...European v Anglicized plus the variations on those and considering the German language allows for minor changes in the written form (e.g. suffixes based on the masculine / feminine)
I digress, these profiles are clear duplicates and the parents for Redwine-137 don't match the profiles sources or partially written profile. I have seen the Barbara Stoner name before and it always ends up without any confirmation or written off as speculation whereas we have plenty of sources for the relationship between Anna Margaretha, husband Peeler, parents Baechler and Riedweils etc...the children have matches in the profiles but will need to be merged as well. Cheers! Becky Elizabeth

I believe UNKNOWN-61216 & Redwine-24 are the same because if not, they represent the same woman and we need to evaluate the family line. The Unknown profile has an extensive Notes section that I added when I found the profile today and connected the dots to fill in an otherwise completely blank page. The only thing on the profile was a connection to the same husband, Michael Peeler, Sr a daughter Anne Marie Peeler (different married surnames but when I did a quick check both daughters are listed on familysearch, myheritage Findagrave etc and we can fix discrepancies as we go. Lastly the name on the profile for the wife and mother was simply "Anna" and she was a direct ancestors of mine. Anna Margaretha Reithweil fits as my 7th great grandmother, wife of M. Peeler, mother of A.M Peeler etc.
I thought so too about the LNAB but felt my message was already quite lengthy (per usual) so I appreciate the work and agreement. Also, I messaged regarding pending merges of other Reithweil profiles that I adopted when found them orphaned but when I try to complete the merges it always tells me another member is completing the merge and to check back. It has done that since the 1st day it was proposed and approved by me- so - if you see those, that is the explanation again. Cheers! Becky Elizabeth (Simmons-11603)
She is my 7th great grandmother as well so first, nice to meet you, cousin!
Secondly, I don't want to assume how much research you have on this branch of our family but I had a hard, crash course (learning some German in college helped for sure) but the best I can tell you is that it was during her generation when her parents were still alive that the name was anglicized to "Redwine" in many instances- after they immigrated from GER.- PA via Rotterdam on "The Osgood". In fact while working through a mangled mess of merges with her father his name is spelled at least 5 different ways on important documents with at least one assuredly unintentional. When Ludwig and Barbara came over in September of 1750(?pretty sure it was the 29th but don't want to leave the screen bc I'm using my phone) they had at least 4 children already and it was noted that the oldest son, Johann Michael was the only family member who could sign his name on the Oath of Allegiance! (he was at least 16 years old but still...) So the spelling was definitely Reithweil but depending on the masc./fem usages it is also Riethweils, Riethweilen and as they were becoming "accustomed" to "Redwine" the spelling also had some evolutionary States of Riedweil (Riedweils, Riedweilen) oh and I almost forgot - "Riedweyl"
I am so 'dumb' for not seeing you listed as profile manager so of course you've come across the names written below- I just got on a roll...maybe it will help others that are not sure which to use.
May I clarify- do you feel that her LNAB should not be Riethweil? If so, I want to take the comment seriously and make sure everyone is okay with what is chosen. I will see if I can pull her baptismal record - I think if we have it, that record would be the most 'equivocal' version to use as LNAB and then fill in that Other last Names Line as much as necessary :)
I have been adding sources to this profile for my 6th great grandmother as I really want her connected to her proper parents. There are at least two profiles, this one and brother Michael that were incorrectly attached to the wrong parents with no sources...the info originally came from a book that has since been discredited and the baptismal and birth records I've provided as well as her father's will that lists her by name and her husband as "son-in-law " and an executor of the will will be enough to get on board with connecting to proper parents- Riethweil-1 and Baechler-5.
Thanks!

The sources and written bio have the correct parents listed which are the parents for profile Riedweils-1 which is the end result of a merge from Redwine-24.
Redwine-24 and Redwine-137 appear to represent the same person because: Similar birth/death dates, but father needs to be resolved between Redwine-24, Redwine-137 and Redwine-196
If the rejection stays in place then one will need to be removed from the other siblings as it is causing errors when working on those pages and the same goes for certain sources and persons who couldn't both be for different women. Thanks for looking in to this.

If everyone is in agreement on this, I can put through this merge on behalf of Larry Hayer and make sure the name is entered as above.
Thanks!
