Hello Roots Magic Clients,

 

I encourage you to try the duplicate search merge by removing the check mark compare birthplaces. to see, if you find duplicates you did not before.  I tried this for the first time (duplicate search merge unchecking compare birthplaces).  I was surprised that this technique did find duplicates for me, because I already had performed a standard duplicate search merge.  Let me know of your results.

To find more matches you should try removing items being compared. Very similar to doing searches on websites. The more search terms the narrower the results.

I always uncheck birth and death places, accurate places can be of great benefit but any slight difference can be a curse, wish it used the geocoding.
