Benard, Besnard, Bourjoly-1 and Benard-82 appear to represent the same person because: same woman, merge into Benard-82, name variations and dit names don't go in LNAB field

Clarke-11007 Greg Clarke
I believe that Anne Menard - Benard,_Besnard,_Bourjoly-1 is the same as Marie Anne Menard - Benard-82 - both have the same birth, marriage and death dates.

There's also the added complication that the husband (singular person) has multiple records, and thus there are multiple marriage connections between the lot.

Anne, unfortunately, Last Name at Birth cannot include multiple names or commas. I found her baptism and she clearly has only one name and that is Menard. Would you edit the LNAB to reflect this name? Thank you!
