There is a parent conflict that needs to be resolved before Short-2985 and Short-211 can be merged.

Short-2985 and Short-211 do not represent the same person because: NOT MY LINE, IT WAS AN ERROR MADE BY MY MOTHER, HORATIO IS MY LINE BACKED UP BY DNA

Short-2985 and Short-211 appear to represent the same person because: same dates and wife

Biography says parents are George Short and Catherine Monical, but he's linked to parents John Short and Eva Monical. Which is correct -- the linked parents, or the biography?

Short-2985 and Short-211 are not ready to be merged because: too many differences, more research needed.

Short-2985 and Short-211 appear to represent the same person because: Same name. Same spouse. Same children.
