Légere-451 and Léger-2046 appear to represent the same person because: Same name and parents; birth date different by 1 year (baptism record says 1881).
Leger-2614 and Léger-2046 appear to represent the same person because: Same parents, same wife's name, same birth/death dates. Placide's wife and two of his children (Suzanne and Yvonne) also need to be merged.
