Russell-9180 and Russell-6304 appear to represent the same person because: Lynda and Carolyn,

Alvich only appears on the 1885 Florida state census and almost certainly was the census-taker's attempt to write the name "Eldridge" Russell. The 1885 census taker also erred in his age; if Alvich really was born in 1878, then he should appear in his parents' 1880 federal census household, but he does not. I think we could safely merge these two profiles.

Thanks, Jeff Haines
