Pearson-7023 and Pearson-4018 appear to represent the same person because: Merge re-look request / Similar details / Same family
- If you agree that they are a match - Please do not set as Unmerged Match (this will stop the merge process) just agree to the merge and the merge will be processed
- Duplicate found as part of http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Database_Errors
- Proposer is a 'Data Doctor' and not related to the Profile/s

I'm wondering why the merge of Pearson-4018 and Pearson-7023 was rejected. These are clearly the same people: same parents, same birth and death dates.
