Hey Steve, welcome to the forum,
I find most of time (but not always) when notes are stacked on top of each other or hidden behind each other its because of clips overlaping in the track view.
Maybe you were dragging clips around in that track and over lapped the ends... a few times

.
RSMS guitar brings up a good point though. How did you get those notes there in the first place ?
If you recorded them, you may be in 'Sound on sound mode" and rather than erase and re-record, Sonar is stacking them on top of each other (like layers). At any rate, If you want to get to the bottom of any problem be as detailed and thorough as possible.
