I'm a little confused about your note on Clark-6169. Are you saying that this Joshua (Clark-2646) is in the wrong generation?? Should this Joshua be a son to Clark-6169?
Clark-6169 is set to Open Privacy, so if you have documentation that defines how the relationships should be arranged, it's OK for you to correct them. Just make sure that you cite your sources on the profiles you're changing.
On the other hand, if there is no documentation that Joshua-6169 had a son named Joshua, and there should only be one son named Joshua for Joseph & Margaret (Turner) Clarke, then let's go ahead and merge these two profiles keeping the correct dates.
Thanks! Please let me know if you need help with any of this.
