Hi Rob, Wikitree's policy is to merge rather than delete profiles. Since Mainwaring-264 has the lower LNAB, 359 must be merged into that profile. This was a match that was missed by the system during import. To make things easier, I will remove myself as PM. Please complete the merge after you've made any changes you'd like to make.

This is very probably the same person as Mainwaring-264. I have two sources for the information I have listed. Why don't you use Mainwaring-264 and delete Mainwaring-359?
posted by Rob Green UE
I have no doubt this is the same person from the general description but I think some caution should be taken to ensure the information is entirely correct and that the information is merged in the proper direction. Your source of information is a GED.com copy. Have you contacted Sir William Arbuthnot about this Brooke/Mainwaring connection?
posted by Rob Green UE
Mainwaring-341 and Mainwaring-264 appear to represent the same person because: they married the same person, died the same date in the same state, were born in the same place. This person is a Gateway Ancestor and as such is of interest to the Magna Carta Project. thank you, April D.D.
