I wanted to add another son William B. Odell (Odell-2577) but was not able to because of the protection. I was able add Dorothy Petree as Williams mother though. Can someone help me repair the profile for William B. Odell?

Odle-172 and O'Dell-3387 appear to represent the same person because: Same wife and child.

My research shows his middle name is Edward, not Nehemiah.

O'Dell-2114 and Odle-172 appear to represent the same person because: same wife and dates, death date on O'Dell is unsourced, headstone clearly indicates the date. Odle is the correct spelling per sources.
