D'Evreux-43 and Evreux-50 appear to represent the same person because: While cleaning up some of the profiles for the Dukes of Bretagne, I created a duplicate of Jeanne d'Evreux. The other profile did not appear, I believe, because of the difference in LNAB. I proposed to merge in this direction, because I believe the " d' " is not supposed to be part of the LNAB per the euroaristo naming standards. If this is not correct, please feel free to reverse the direction of the merge.
