I think it's very sad that in all the time since this profile was created and apparently modified nobody has found a trace of her parents or siblings. She married at 18 years of age. Where did she live at 16 and 17? And before?
I wish I had time to research her life myself, although my line of Goodmans were never in Ohio.
Goodman-3129 and Goodman-1472 appear to represent the same person because: Find A Grave says she was born in 1847; married same man. This is the correct merge direction: into Goodman-1472. Please merge but use Find A Grave birth data unless you have a better Source.
Hi Terri, I see your comments reference the proposed merge of profiles Goodman-3129 and Goodman-1472. I don't quite understand what you meant by the "need to merge into lower LNAB".
If you are referring to the need to merge high profile number into the lower profile number, that situation could be easily corrected by simply rejecting the merge and then suggest a new merge going high profile number to low profile number.
If you mean something else entirely would appreciate if you would explain further.
Goodman-1472 and Goodman-3129 do not represent the same person because: Need to merge into lower LNAB. The merge suggested is in the incorrect direction.
