Sears-1158 and Sears-16 appear to represent the same person because: I suspect these two people are the same. Catherine is definitely daughter of James Sears and Sarah Coffman. Thanks. JSC

Sears-16 is also the same Catherine Sears, so let's get them all merged. I had just her first name and married last name in my records, so we're on the right track. Thanks, everyone!

Sears-3051 and Sears-1158 appear to represent the same person because: duplicates along with several others in this immediate family group. This should be straightened out by the profile managers please.
