Advice before merging these pre-1700 Forbes profiles?

Question

Forbes-5485 is a duplicate of Forbes-5941 (side-by-side comparison) so they should be merged.

Should I contact one of the pre-1700 projects or know about any style guidelines before proceeding?

Or perhaps someone with more WikiTree experience would like to complete the merge? Let me know if you do. Thanks!

Answer 1

It looks like you merged them. I assume you set the merge for the duplicated wife too, good job. If you request help in G2G in the future please comment that it has been done if you make the change. It keeps others from taking the time to go check them. Thanks

Answer 2

Note that the surname given on this profile for George Forbes's wife is incorrect. His wife is known only from his will as Olef. They had a granddaughter named Olive Ferree.
