Coming around to changing my thinking on Melrose B, as it appears Cicely's brother was known to the family as "Beau", and there are other indications they may be the same person.
I created a profile for Melrose, but because I could not provide a death date, it auto-set to black lock for living. (Nearest I have found so far for his death is that a couple of unsourced online trees have 2003, but no place, and nothing else.)
IF Melrose B is the same Melrose as Melrose E (for Emanuel), aka Cicely's brother, then he married twice -- or at least applied for a license twice and married once. First source I have is an application for a license, but I've not found a followup marriage. Then the second is not a license application, but a marriage record. Unfortunately, no images for either - and no parents named, or anything else I could use to verify that they are the same, or not the same, person. Needless to say, the two wives (or potential wife and wife) have different names.
Melrose was also quite the world traveller, as most of the sources for him are immigration. (He worked on ships.)
Question -- if I were to set his death to the unsourced, unproven 2003, I could open the profile so others can help source his profile. BUT, if I do that, and it turns out he's one of the extremely long-lived (he'd be 99 this year), I would feel as though we were "killing him off" (or "wishing him dead") before his time.
So, should I set an unproven date and open the profile, or leave him black-locked as "living"?
