Ekas-22 and Ekas-3 appear to represent the same person because: Hi Donna, I'm LJ Russell and am importing a gedcom file to Wikitree. This is the second of three merges I will be proposing today. Your Mary and my Mary are a match. I suggest a merge as I have data you do not have and you have data I don't have. Easier to merge than type all that stuff in. LOL

Thanks, LJ
