I'm re-initiating this merge in an attempt to delete the profile currently represented by Mead-49. The profile manager currently there (she may remove herself shortly) admits that this may have been an accidental duplicate she created. Merging her with your Mary Mead will give you a lower-numbered ID while still retaining all the content from Mead-158. Thank you for your support in merging away duplicate profiles.
