Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

Sorry to have to say this, but I don't think this makes sense. You can get adults 15-24 in the IR and MR files, and children 0-4 in the KR file. The IR file includes v206-208. Why do you want to merge with the PR file? Most household-level and individual-level characteristics are included in the IR, MR, and KR files. I suggest you think more carefully about what you want to produce, perhaps as tables. And produce this with one survey before expanding to all surveys in all of sub-Saharan Africa. It's usually a good idea to start simple, and then add complexity.
