Bailey-14823 and Bailey-9723 appear to represent the same person because: Same person and family
Bailey-14823 and Bailey-9723 are not ready to be merged because: The source I cite in the creation of this profile makes no mention of Gallatin County as a potential death location for John Bailey Sr and your profile does not contain sources. I'm not comfortable that this is the same person.
