Steen-406 and Steen-17 appear to represent the same person because: Steen-17 was entered without sources. I adopted it today to add relationships and sources. Steen-406 has the information, but was added later, and she is project protected.

Cannot complete the merge as the parents are different - seems to be duplicated as well. Can you please review & issue merge requests for parents if needed, so we can sort them out first.
