Smith-79977 and Smith-6081 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles represent the same Elizabeth J. "Libbie" Smith who married Charles A. Wells in 1887. Krissi Love added the original profile in 2011 by linking to her husband. I inadvertently created the duplicate profile today by linking to her parents. Let's merge!
