Hunter-22798 and Hunter-21178 appear to represent the same person because: Please agree to merge these duplicate profiles. Thanks!

I am certainly open to merging these profiles, but don't currently see any records on Hunter-21178 that link to a daughter Margaret, nor any records on this profile that link any of the other noted children of Sarah Millen to either Sarah or Sarah's daughter, Margaret. Please share any relevant information and I'm more than happy to merge. Thanks!

When you created the profile for Hugh Hunter (abt.1801-abt.1874) you added Sarah Jane (Millan) Hunter (1808-1882) as his wife. She already had a husband, Hugo Hunter (1801-1874). Her two husbands have the same birth and death dates, and appear to be the same person. You also created the profile for their daughter Margaret: Margaret Hunter (1852-1894). Your statement seems to indicate that you don't have any sources for any of what you created for this family on 19 September 2022.

When I created the original profile for Hugh Hunter and linked it to Sarah Jane (Millan) Hunter, my source was the marriage record of their daughter, Margaret. I didn't see any sources attached to Sarah that would link her to the others. I have merged Hugh and Hugo and attached some other sources that I found to tie them to their daughter, Nancy, and son, John, but hope I haven't conflated members of this family.
