Lukens-626 and Lukens-375 appear to represent the same person because: Looks like a clear match.

Thanks, Erik. Indeed a duplicate. Entered by my uncle, A.M. Lukens, jr., before he knew how to "wikitree." I gave him a quick tour, showed him the tutorials and soforth. I think he's hooked.😉

Cheers, "Cousin Amy"
