Fehr-354 and Fehr-220 are not ready to be merged because: Johann Bernhard Fehr, born in 1728 is not ready to be merged because there is a dispute about who his mother was. Study continues by all profile managers.
posted by Edna (Niblett) Wood
Fehr-354 and Fehr-220 appear to represent the same person because: potential duplicate - Elizabeth Waggoner seems to have been his second wife. and Dorothy Moesch his first wofe. Maybe Fehr-354 is related to wrong mother. (Baptism record of Oberschefflenz says his mother is called Barbara)

Fehr-357 and Fehr-220 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate
