Hello I recently created a profile for Robert Powers (Power-6295), born abt 1819 in Co Waterford, Ireland, died 15 Aug 1892, Caribou, Aroostook, Maine. Power-6295 turned out to duplicate this one (Powers-4796). The wife Mary Farrell is the same, and descendants I have traced on an Ancestry tree are the same between (Power-6295) and (Powers-4796). (Fortunately I caught the duplication before adding anyone else other than Mary.) Would the profile manager kindly merge these two Robert Powers, using birthplace Co Waterford? Thank you.
