My Brothers and Sisters and our their spouses, all living, have recently been adding each other into family search and we have discovered for all of us living, we have created many duplicates, most living, some passed, that have not been merged. Duplicates have been created, and now we seem to be working on separate trees. What a mess. How do we fix this.

    We understand that your siblings have found the spirit of Elijah and are working in FamilySearch Family Tree. They have added records describing their other siblings that too are working in FamilySearch Family Tree and discovered that there are duplicate records for those relatives. This is perfectly normal. Please review how Family Tree protects the privacy of living people https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/what-is-a-private-space-in-family-tree
