I confused my methods.

A file was removed and committed. The file had revisions 1.1 & 1.2, HEAD was
the committed remove.

Trying to get it back I confused the CVS process with the SVN process. 

Rather than get the previous revision and add it back in I merged the
previous revisions with HEAD - which politely removed the 1.2 revision from
History.

Short of restore from backup, is there a way to recover from this recovery?

Thank you,
Shawn
