I have found a person who didn't exist so I'm contacting you asking the name removed as it has multiple submitters and can't be deleted.

The name Reg N. Casselman id # L25H-QBQ didn't exist.

Please see the father's obituary in memories Ezra Michael Henry Casselman id # KN6X-FK4. There it states he had 3 children. The submitter misinterpreted the obituary and created a person who didn't exist.

In the obituary, the daugther: Mabel Pearl Casselman, Reg N. of Ottawa then the 2 sons follow.

The Reg N of Ottawa - means Registered Nurse.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

    Suggestion: change "Reg" to female and merge the profile into Mabel's.

    (I don't know why the "Why can't I delete" popup suggests the Contact Us route for nonexistent people; they're almost always based on an error about a person who did exist, as here, and can therefore be gotten rid of by merging into the existing person's profile. But in any case, this is the public forum for FamilySearch, not what was meant by "Contact Us".)
