I am reviewing indexed records, and have come across a duplicate record. It's not duplicate in that it is the exact same record. It is two different records with the same information. Does this count as a duplicate?

    When we do our family research we try to have as many sources as possible to prove each fact. Since these are two separate documents with the same facts it goes a long way to proving the fact. Researchers will appreciate being able to see both documents.
