 Each record in the Ancestral File is given a unique number, the AFN.&nbsp; The existence of an AFN would indicate that some or all of the information came from the Ancestral File.&nbsp; Note that unique numbers may or may not be a single individual.&nbsp; However, the number is often useful when merging duplicates, because a matching AFN indicates a high probability of duplication.&nbsp; Some genealogy programs, such as [[PAF and Other Genealogy Organizers|PAF]], can automatically merge duplicate AFNs.
