Looks like profile has been merged already. I have completed the data conflict.

As a "free user" the only way I seem to be able to merge duplicates is to find the duplicate via google. Clicking on the blue box simply takes me to a paywall. Therefore I have entered most of my family tree manually (except where I found the duplicate via google). Also I had entered most of my family tree manually before I found the merge function in "free user" mode.

So do I post all my profiles here which have a blue box? Or is it not that simple? Or is there a way to view and merge duplicates without paying?

Cheers

Hi Shaun, I will see what I can merge for you, then you can post any that I miss.

Hi Shaun, I have merged what i could of your tree - there were 5 or so that I could not determine if they were duplicates nor could I determine that they weren't duplicates.

Clicking on the blue box does hit the paywall. Easy identification of duplicates is one of the perks of Pro membership.

If you come across blue boxes that you can't merge, let me know and I can check for you.

Hi Shaun.
You just need to ask a curator and we can reverse a merge.
It can take an hour or more but usually only takes a few minutes. Once the profiles are unmerged please check the data in both profiles and tbat the correct relatives have gone to the right man.

Sandra is a claimed profile and was on Geni very recently.
Initiate the merge yourself and let's give her the opportunity to approve it herself.
You could try sending her a private message too. It's possible she does not have much knowledge of how Geni works

@alex Robb My father Douglas Malcolm Crawshaw doesn’t belong on your tree. There’s a Douglas Anthony Crawshaw b 1928 that is probably your relative.
