Thanks. I was able to fix the error by deleting the pages through the
software and recreating from a working backup. Time consuming but it did the
trick. Thanks for the tips.

There is likely a redirect hiding old revisions on one

Check the history of all the pages involved in the redirect. There will
be a few with only one or two revisions that are purely redirects, those
can be deleted. Then there should be one page that has a redirect as the
recent revision, but has a number of revisions in the history. That's
the one you can fix by reverting to content and moving it to the proper
location.

Also, it would be nice to know

You can delete the page by appending ?action=delete. There's no need
to delete it manually in the database.
