IMHO, I reccomend merging the two 'ladies' into one,
which lets you choose the other name as AKA. The no

Always make a back up first.
When merging, you will get check marks next to the
different items on
both persons. You check which info you want merged
into the main
person. (Select the one who is most correct as the
main person, I thnk
it goes on the left.) Be sure to notice all the tabs
in the merge
window, one is for events, family, etc. I would not
merge the second
wife, since she is most likely to be deleted, right?
And her name
added as an AKA to the correct wife? But if the
second wife has any
events, you may wish to do a merge with those two,
also.

I have 2 individuals who I have now determined are
the same person even
though the names of their wives are different (one
is a wrong guess but I
want to retain it as an "alt name" option).
I would like to merge these 2 individuals but am
concerned as to what would
happen to the wives. Also one individual has no
events and the other a
great deal including children, etc.
Suggestions as to how to do this safely?

Thanks everyone.
