Emily Kent Marget I inadvertently ended up merging them.

Private User - Do you want me to reverse the merge?

Emily Kent Marget no, it's all good. Thanks.

I'm not understating why the father on the right is in red. Usually it means a relationship issue, but I'm not seeing it.

Private User - The issue is that Olof Nilsson Gastenberg has the same profile as his mother and wife.

Emily Kent Marget any ideas on how to fix it?

I can't find anything on these two. I'm also a bit confused about the name on the left and how Sarver fits in.

Private User - I sent a message to the managers. Two of them are active curators.

Sorry your request needs to be on hold.

The other set is without managers, - feel free to get it.

William Owen "Bill" Irwin - In reviewing the sources in the FS link, I think there were two men named Obadiah Prichard in Harford County in 1790. (The summary count at the top of each page of the 1790 Census is different.)
Without a history of the Pritchard family, I am loathe to do anything.

Emily Kent Marget understood.. I weas following a tree and had to stop.

There's a source document attached.

See page 4 of 17

The Prichard family in America prior to 1755. A John Prichard was identified as having emigrated to
America in 1647 and a William Prichard identified as a resident of Maryland in 1658.

The earliest traceable records indicate that:
1. Obediah Prichard was married to Margaret in 1699.
2. No record of next generation
3. Obediah born about 1755. The children were: ....

(traces 3.3, Joshua married Milley Tippen about 1804 ...)

I'll try undoing merges to better align generations.

Resolved Obediah Prichard

Erica Howton - Thanks.
I knew from the Family Search pictures of the 1790 Census that there must have been two people named Obadiah.

From "ATTENTION...." two MP profiles of Elizabeth Brandt (nee Crewe). No sources on either one to verify dates and places.

After finding some sources, I did the merge.

Private User - The dates and locations don't agree.
Something looks funky.

The one on the left already has conflicting parents.

Private User - did what I could on the Ruth duplicates. It really needs more sourcing.

Thank you, Erica Howton
