Bruce of Symbister-2 and Bruce-821 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth and death details. Bruce-821 has no other profiles connected. Bruce is the preferred LNAB. Thanks for reviewing.

The merge just completed left the profile with an incorrect LNAB. The LNAB should be the person's surname at birth, The use of descriptors or titles (of Symbister) in the LNAB is not in accordance with Wikitree Style and Policy standards which indicates the LNAB field should contain the birth surname.

Bruce of Symbister-2 and Bruce-4631 appear to represent the same person because: same spouse, same dates, same parents. Somebody included the location in the surname field. I'll see if I can fix that, even though it's not my profile.
