Bailey-41577 and Bailey-26116 appear to represent the same person because: it's a little aggravating when a hundred matches show up, but not the right one. Please merge--since I have sourced and improved the newer profile, should use the sources, narrative, and details from that. He did in 1929, not 1959.
