Downer-430 and Downer-399 appear to represent the same person because: I've been working in both of these profiles for a couple of hours now, along with the husband's profile...didn't realize I was working in duplicate profiles until I connected one with the husband and saw two Thankful Downers. The are the same person, the birth reference in 430 just needs to be added to the birth area in the biography of 399.
