Orra Obedience Hamilton (1863 - 1937)

Hamilton-26611 and Hamilton-3693 appear to represent the same person because: Regarding the rejected merge of Hamilton-26611 and Hamilton-3693. When merging, you have to ask yourself, "are these profiles for the same person", not "are all the facts in perfect agreement." If you want a perfect match, very few merges would ever be done. Think of your own research, where you may find 5 or 6 different dates of birth. You choose one. Someone else chooses another. Or someone makes a typo. Hamilton-3693 provides no sources for the assertion that she was born in 1853.

For this merge, it's hard to make the case that these are not the same person. By rejecting the merge, you're saying the Joel Foster Hamilton and Orra Williams had two daughters, both named Orra Obedience Foster Hamilton, both born on the same day exactly 10 years apart in the same city, and both died on the same day in the same city. That's really hard to believe.

The other profile has no manager. You have the power to perform the merge and choose your own date of birth for the merged profile. And even if you're still not convinced (and you should be), it is better to put the merge request into an "unmerged state" instead of rejecting it outright. I am resubmitting the proposed merge.

Hamilton-26611 and Hamilton-3693 do not represent the same person because: I have copies of the family bible that states she was born in 10/1863. Could it be wrong? Possible. But, I'm going with what is in the bible

Hamilton-26611 and Hamilton-3693 appear to represent the same person because: The profile for Hamilton-3693 says she was born in 1853, not 1863. Otherwise, its an excellent match.
