The trick is to get to the Person Page for the deleted person:<br />1. Go to the surviving person's "Person Page".<br />2. Click the "Show All" link at the bottom of the "Latest Changes" box on the right side of the page.<br />3. Find the merge in the list of changes. All the changes made as part of the merge are surrounded by a big green "Merge" box.<br />4. Click on the name of the "Deleted Person". The Person Card that comes up has a link to the "Person Page" for the deleted person. Click it.<br />5. The resulting Person Page for the deleted person has a big banner that says the person is deleted and who did it. Click the "Restore Person" link on the righthand side of the box.<br /><br />Hope that helps.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14589654565502735284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527613590529958801.post-45369437610208506822013-09-04T21:27:37.494-07:002013-09-04T21:27:37.494-07:00Thanks.

The answer seems to be "wait until FSFT is the only bird flying..."<br /><br />I think I'll go back to the easy ones to fix and work my way back in time. There are enough of them to do for years, I think.Randy Seaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477703429102065294noreply@blogger.com
