I have completely messed up and put the wrong parents with the wrong child four generations back. Tried to change it but Gr wont let me. Had a look on the threads it seems the only way is to delete entire tree and start again, please say it isnt so!

I think you have to delete the child first and then the parents. nell

The other alternative is to send GR a grovelling email asking if they would sort it out for you! lol Jeanette x

I think its going to be easier and probably a lot quicker to just delete the tree and start again with just direct ancestors and then add siblings as time goes on!

an easier way would to dowbnload PAF from www.familysearch.org - export you tree from here into the program - and make amendments there
