McGuire-7034 and McGuire-1387 appear to represent the same person because: Both profiles have identical DOB and DOD and same father. Clear duplicates.

Hi Jim,

The DOB was actually different, per the note I added at the bottom, I thought I had chosen the Jun date to propagate, but apparently when I copied the Jan date, it reset the info to carry into the final profile after the merge. Not sure where the Jan date came from.

Rick,

You are right about the dates. Except for the unsourced FAG Memorial, with the illegible tombstone, I have no source for that much specificity. I'll try to find something to clarify.
