Darga-34 was previously listed as Charles Ashmore's father in a duplicate profile. The wedding certificate posted in the profile picture says Charles's father was actually William Ashmore. Is it worth double-checking this information?

Darga-225 and Ashmore-192 appear to represent the same person because: Charles is the son of Felix Darga and Lucy Coleman. 1920 Census indicates Charles is the Stepson of William Ashmore. http://www.wikitree.com/photo/jpg/Coleman-4235
