Profile sources added incorrectly - did I fix it properly?

I mistakenly added sources to Nathaniel Fletcher Blevins (Blevins-1620), thinking it was the profile for someone with a similar name. I went so far as to remove the spouse on the profile. I believe I have restored everything to how it was previously. If someone has time, would they please check this for me?

I have sources to create the profile for a "Nathan Fletcher Blevins"  who I wanted to connect to his son, Henry Hopkins Blevins (Blevins-513).

I created a rejected match for the two profiles, so someone doesn't make my mistake and confuse the two.

Thanks!

Hi Susan,

For future reference, there's an option to revert to a previous version of the profile. This is available on the Changes tab.

What I would do now, is to use the sources provided to create a biography. That way you can show the facts the sources prove and distinguish him from the other similar profile.

Your idea of using the rejected match is a good idea. You can also add a note to the research notes section.
