Hodges-8704 and Hodges-3650 appear to represent the same person because: Clear dup and down the line too needs merge.

Tiedeman-60 Ellen (Tiedeman) Steger
Hodges-5930 and Hodges-3650 appear to represent the same person because: I started to add Frances Hodges as a daughter of Asa Hodges-5930, when I realized that Frances Hodges-3649 already existed. I was going to add that Frances married William Brown. I think these 2 Asa Hodges are the same person.
