Using the low file number instructions ...the high number Zebidiah Rice as the low number son Samuel ...so it seem Samuel merge should come first ? Then when that is complete ....the two Zebadiah file can be reconciled. Yes, I do see that there is a different spouse involved [ which I cannot do anything about ] I seem to be more of a report ...as I saw this double / double while doing some Stone research . Hope this helps fix four files. Greg
