A child Sarah (Collins-28871) Hudson was added. Does she belong? There is no listing of children on this biography.
Hi Cheryl, I don't actually remember creating this profile, but I will take a look at it.

It's ok to add that information, with inline citation, to the biography, Lesley. If you can find a source for the other 3 children, please add that as well. Thanks.
Collins-964 and Collins-954 do not represent the same person because: Further research is needed to make sure these are the same individual.
