Davidson-11397 and Davidson-2691 appear to represent the same person because: Davidson 11397 was created inadvertently because the facts didn't quite match, but they're clearly the same person.

Davidson-7514 and Davidson-2691 appear to represent the same person because: Davidson-7514 profile was abandoned. It is an obvious duplicate to Davidson-2691, so I took over the profile to initiate a merge.
