Young-17549 and Young-851 appear to represent the same person because: Same parents (merged proposed for mother) and husband. Similar birth and death details. Thanks for reviewing.
Young-17549 and Young-851 are not ready to be merged because: I would like to wait a short time because I have more info to add that will create a more complete profile. Also, I have Eliza's lineage back several generations. I've been trying to find Jonathan's parents, but have had no luck. Is there a Young Project that we could get involved in? Thank you.
Young-17549 and Young-851 appear to represent the same person because: Hi, I have been working on the Young family tree for a number of years from my g-g-grandfather, Solomon Anderson Young side. One of his sister's is Sarah Ann Young (Knight, Ferrell). I have added her with a number of sources I have found. And now see you have added her already. I would like to propose a merger of these two people, Young-17549 and Young-851, since they are the same people. Thank you so much for your consideration. Sincerely, Sharen Moon
