Kuenzel-41 and Künzel-39 appear to represent the same person because: Same person, same birth and death dates. Name was originally spelled with an umlaut -- Künzel -- but as an adult, he spelled his surname without the umlaut -- Kuenzel -- which caused initial confusion when I created the second profile. I have details about parents; existing profile has details about wife and children.
