Ricketts-2407 and Ricketts-293 appear to represent the same person because: created after using findagrave entry that was incorrect.

Ricketts-516 and Ricketts-293 appear to represent the same person because: I found this in a merge of the spouse Ruth Wells and thought it to be a candidate for merge since they seem strikingly similar
