Is this a job for an Arborist? [closed]

Hi,

I just completed a merge between two profiles, and the two resulting husbands also need to be merged an Oliver Stewart and Oliver Steward.

But both have separate, but very simliar (but not identical pedigrees).

This isn't a direct line of research, so I'm wondering is this something I can refer to an arborist?

Looks like Steward with a d has been hooked in a generation too early, so his "father" is really his grandfather and his "brother" Oliver is his father.

He can just be merged away and lose the wrong parents in the merge.
Wow, you're right.  Too early in the morning.  I put the trees side-by-side and swear I saw two alternate spellings all the way up the tree!
