Smith-192707 and Smith-39052 appear to represent the same person because: Same husband. Fathers are different so one of the profiles will need to be disconnected from the current father to enable completion of the merge. Please could you check your sources to clarify which father is likely to be the incorrect one. Thanks!

I meant should be. The comments about James Smith’s accent obviously indicate he was NOT from Tennessee, but how could he have been born in South Carolina? I’ll leave it to others, though.
