Still having problems. These are some of the comments I am getting:

 

*merging: left is different sex to right - these are two totally different 
people so why were they brought up to be merged ?

* missing birth/christening dates or dates are not exact - both had - Abt 1860 
so why did they come up to be merged ?

* does one select all the settings in the " Normal Duplicate Search " page.

Hi Valerie,

 

1.  The number of 'duplicates' has increased, because those merges you've done 
have enabled Legacy to see more people who might be duplicates, and have added 
them to the list for you to consider.

 

3.  The total number of people has decreased (2594 + 2540 = 5134) because you 
have made some merges already.

 

Hope this helps.  :-)

 

Wendy

1. I have created a new file and imported 2594 people and then imported another 
2540 from another file and started the merge process. I used all the settings 
as suggested. Now I have started the merge and as I say " merge right into left 
 " the number of merges still to be done have gone from 69 dulicates to 479. 
WHY ??

2. Also I can see that one of the problems is age at death so I want to not use 
this criteria anymore but I cannot get back into the beginning settings to 
delete this age at death problem

3. I now have 4945 people
