I have no intention of merging these families, the duplicates search engine had listed them as possible merge candidates as they had a child in common, which I believe I corrected so they are no longer merge candidates, the child in question was born after the date of death of one of the possible mothers. If I have removed a child in error then please reinstae it with good sources and do not use the other child.Rhian 19:36, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
