Hello, Can anyone tell me whether, if I add people to my old tree, they will automatically appear on the new tree which has appeared since I last worked on my tree? I've got used to the old tree. Also, if I add people to the new tree, will they automatically appear on the old tree? Or do I have to add new people to both trees? Why are there two trees? Thank you. Janet

Just out of curiosity I did a test. I added 2 people on the old tree format and they also appeared on the new tree format. Then, I made a correction on the new tree and it appeared on the old. I guess they are connected. Rose

Madeline GR updated the tree maker programme and some people had their tree on here already. If you are new you would probably have used the new one. It's just an improvement on the old one. Hope that makes sense - LOL! Lynne
