In adding Sarah Gilleland, I discovered that Amanda Wood Moore, and her ancestors, were already on the tree. I would like to merge Edward Wood and Amanda Wood so that there are no duplicates. (I've found more information on Edward Wood and Amanda Wood than are currently on the older profiles.)
Thanks, Kimberly
