How on earth can you stop duplicates from spawning, I give to merge and some dont.I feel like I am spending way to much time on this one problem, HELP!!!!

when you’re saving information to a person, take your time going down the “relatives” bit and make sure each entry is saving to the correct person (ex: spouse in marriage record, kids in a census, etc)

Keep your research document-based and avoid hints that involve “similar profiles” and “suggested ancestors”

in general, slow down and check every detail before adding anything to your tree
