I have a grandfather   https://www.geni.com/people/George-Wilson-Sr/6000000006150370125

He has a sister https://www.geni.com/people/Callie-Mangum/6000000006150272195

When I try to add a sibling to the Wilson record, I add Callie Mangum's name and birth date information, but I get a brand new sibling record that has nothing to do with https://www.geni.com/people/Callie-Mangum/6000000006150272195

Nor do I see a way to specify the exact one I want?

Can you help me link https://www.geni.com/people/Callie-Mangum/6000000006150272195 as a sibling to https://www.geni.com/people/George-Wilson-Sr/6000000006150370125

Thanks!

  Thanks, they are linked now.  I finally sent a message to my favorite profile manager and she took care of it for me. I still have no idea how to do it, but as long as she's here and likes to do merges, I guess I'm good.

  Thank you.  I spent some time searching, but didn't see any of the titles you've got up there, so those will help.
