   Don't delete them, merge them.   
      
   Actually I think the delete function has been disabled, to prevent   
   datas loss in such cases.   
      
   If you look on the right hand side you will see "Possible Duplicates"   
   and then a place to enter the FamilySearch Id of a person to merge.   
      
   Enter the Id of the person, and you will be shown the information in   
   two columns, with the option to reject or replce the infor on the left   
   with that on the right.   
      
   You might find duplicate sets of parents or children, and if you copy   
   them across you can merge them later.
