Morrow-4427 and Morrow-4418 appear to represent the same person because: Morrow-4427 is unsourced (birth year is estimated), the burial place is the only connection; there is nothing to prevent this merge.

Morrow-4427 and Morrow-4418 do not represent the same person because: Morrow-4427 is unsourced, the only connection between -4427 and -4418 is burial place. I would merge them to get rid on unsourced -4427.

The birth dates between the two profiles are 100 years apart and more proof/source would be needed before merging them.

Linda, I mistakenly created unsourced Morrow-4427 and the bogus birth year of 1900 (wild guess). I orphaned the profile in the belief that it would be merged away. Also, I commented on the profile: "Big oops on my part - not paying attention. Profile already created. Obvious duplicate."

I changed the guess birth date to 1800 in the hopes that the merge would happen.

so ... please ... please ... please ... merge the two profiles.

Morrow-4418 and Morrow-4427 are not ready to be merged because: Birth dates about 100 years apart - needs to be resolved before merging. Also, no sources and nothing in the notes to indicate which is correct.

There is a problem with birth and death of father to children's dates, needs to be revisited.

Wikitree is not now letting me merge the profiles as per this message:

A parent (Morrow-4418 born 1800) should not have been born more than 170 years before one of their children died (Morrow-4420 died 6 Jul 1979) . This would mean that even if the parent gave birth at 70, the child lived to be over 100. A parent's death date (Morrow-4418 died Nov 1858) should not be more than 120 years before one of their children died (Morrow-4420 died 6 Jul 1979) . This would mean the child lived to be over 120.

The original text on daughter Sarah's profile was this: She was the daughter of Christopher Morrow and Sarah Unknown. She passed away in 1923 and is buried at Baileysmill Reformed Presbyterian Graveyard with parents and four siblings. Also Samuel Morrow and his wife. The details you have entered on Sarah's profile are for a completely different Sarah, different generation.

Sarah's profile needs to be edited to how it read before and a new one set up for the Sarah you are referring to. I have been looking at the marriages of his other children that you have entered. Do you have a source for these children being the offspring of this particular Christopher Morrow - Morrow was a common name in Ireland. In particular, I notice that the newspaper notice of Maria's marriage refers to Christopher Morrow of Ballymagarrick, whereas Christopher Morrow (Morrow-4418) was from Ballycairngannon. Townlands are an important way of figuring out the various families with the same name.

Once the profiles are all resolved, I am of course happy to do the merge.

Thanks Linda

Linda, I truly regret my cavalier attitude about adding profiles (although it was some time ago). I caused others to spend time researching and writing up their research. I learned my lesson and am very careful about adding profiles - I don't add anyone without a source! Mea Culpa is done - moving on ...
