    We understand you would like to merge the multiple versions of your Uncle. If you are seeing them both as Private , this would indicate you are the original contributor.

    You may find the instruction on how to do this by visiting the Help Center and using search term merge by ID

    or use this link

    Keep in mind that you need to start from the record you want to keep, and use the PID of the record that will be deleted in the merge.
