The mother Rosa and her son Frank/Franciscus are repeated at the bottom of the page.

How do I fix or delete that? I can't find anything.

    I've had a look and can't see any duplication (on the mobile app though), could you perhaps give us a screenshot showing the problem?

    There's no repetition on the website, either — any more. It looks like another user removed the extraneous relationship earlier today.

    It also looks like the repetition was caused by a merge; this often happens, although the exact circumstances are unclear to me. (Is it from transferring a relationship in the merge, or from not transferring one?)

    For future reference: if there is an extra parent-child relationship (such as just mother and son, without the father), but the correct, "full" relationship (mother, father, and son) also exists, then the easiest way to fix it is to find the child where he's listed under just the one parent, click the edit (pencil) button after his name, and then use the second trashcan ("Remove or Replace") button (under the child's name) to remove the relationship. Note that the popups, like the Change Log, alarmingly talk about removing or deleting people, but you're not: you're just getting rid of a relationship.
