Squire-1983 and Squire-18 appear to represent the same person because: Same father. Same birthplace, birth exactly 3 years apart, but no sources on -1983. Same spouse's name (marked as unmerged matches due to some rather significant differences in dates), daughter Hannah with same married name on both profiles. Same death info. Please merge
