Hi Daryl, From the birth registration, Olive's Last Name at Birth seems to be Dixon. Preferably that should be amended so that the merge can be completed into the correct Last Name at Birth. I'll send you a trusted list request, but alternatively, if you are able to correct the surname, then after that Carrott-161 can be merged into this profile. If you have any questions about this, please get back to me. Thanks so much!
