Forest-485 and Forest-86 do not represent the same person because: Same name, married to men with same name, and their fathers have the same name. They are easily confused but they are not a match!
Forest-317 and Forest-86 appear to represent the same person because: same parents, spouse, and children per profiles. Forest-86 has been corrected to remove the erroneous Louisiana data due to confusion with her identity, and is ready to move forward with this merge. Thanks!
This profile is connected to parents Charles Forest and Marguerite Saulnier. However that appears to be incorrect. A sister also named Marguerite is connected to this family, and appears to be the actual daughter for these parents. THIS Marguerite Forest-683 has been matched to Marguerite Forest-86 in a merge proposal, and based on both birth and death dates the match seems to be correct. Forest-86 was never in Louisiana, having died in New Brunswick. Forest-683 was originally created as having died in New Brunswick as well, but with the incorrect parents which caused confusion with the other Marguerite Forest-86.
If there are no objections, we should disconnect this Marguerite from these parents, remove the Louisiana references , and allow the proposed merge to proceed.
Sorry, I mistakenly thought the other merge had been done. I incorporated the information and deleted the research note header-- and possibly some info-- when I merged Forest-683 and Forest-86. :(
Forest-683 and Forest-86 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same birth year (both estimated). Same death - off by one day which could be death and burial.
Hi Cindy. Fox Creek caught my attention because it is close to Memramcook. In the Centre des études acadiennes index for the register of Memramcook, only one Marguerite Forest was buried in 1813 and she was married to Joseph LeBlanc. See research note.
Changed mother to Marie Josephe Poirier per Karen Theriot Reader documentation, the first wife of Charles forest was Marie Chiasson but no children are identified for that marriage.
If there are no objections, we should disconnect this Marguerite from these parents, remove the Louisiana references , and allow the proposed merge to proceed.
