Someone merged a record into a family member of mine in error. Since that merge, there have been changes made, and I don't know how to fix this - it says that the merge(s) cannot be reversed. The Spouse and Children listed under the "About" tab for this person are all correct, but there are two more spouses listed. Can someone help with getting this reversed? Basically, the Lucia Ardizzone from Iowa is no relation to the person of the same/similar name who lived in Louisiana.

    @Andrew68652 When I go to Lucia Ardizzone's detail page LLWG-SNJ She is listed with 3 different Husbands Giovanni Masaracchia LVCK-727, Michael Mercurio G34R-TH8 and Michele Mercurio LLWG-9JV. They all show different children. First you need to determine which is the correct husband. Then remove the other husbands from the record. You can review this Knowledge Article "A person in FamilyTree has the wrong spouse" it will show you how to correct the record.

    Thanks for the help, but it doesn't seem to let me edit the other spouses.

    As you can see, I can edit the section with Giovanni and Lucia, but I cannot edit the section with Michael and Lucia below.

    While you often cannot undo a merge, you can always restore a delete person so you do not lose that person's information. To do that, you need to go to the deleted person's profile and click the Restore Person link.
