You say Axline-78 and Axline-47 do not represent the same person because: "John Axline born in Prince William Co, VA accounting to records and died in Loudon County, Virginia, but father died in Chester County, Pennsylvania. Still working on parents, this is not making since to me with doc's".
Can you add your source to the profile please?
These really look like the same people. Which facts do we need to choose to accomplish this merge? If you need more time to evaluate you can create an unmerged match rather than rejecting the merge. The only minor difference is that the profiles list adjoining counties for their birthplaces, but without citing sources. Birth date: Same (19 Sep 1739) Birth place: Adjoining counties (Loudoun County, Virginia vs. Prince William County, Virginia Colony Death date: Same (19 Feb 1833) Death place: Same (Loudoun County, Virginia, although Axine-47 lists a city) Wife: Same (Christiena or Christena Mertz, b 1750, one list month/day, d. 16 Apr 1828) Daughter: Same (Charlotte or Sharlotte, b. 22 Nov 1776, d. 11 Mar 1827)
