My family tree skipped a generation. It inserted info for my 3x GG in place where data for my 2nd GG should be on Family Tree. How do I fix this?

@Ilet Grgich​ @Brett .​ @Dennis J Yancey​ Any pointers on this? I seem to recall reading something similar on another post, but am unsure how to best formulate a response to address this. Your insight is always helpful and appreciated. Thanks friends!

I am guessing that at least one of the children has inadvertantly been attached to their grandparents instead of their parents (or perhaps to both). If so, it should just be a matter of removing/replacing the relevant people from each other.

If you need more help, I could have a look at it for you or with you - I would need more info (names/PID's).

Unless someone knows other wise as to something I don't know - I would have no reason to believe this is some system bug

and merely that someone has made the connections in error (sometimes occurring when a merge is done in error) and they just need to be unconnected and reconnected in the correct manner.

just like fixing any other bad relationship.

 

one should be able to view the audit history of changes - and see exactly what happened.

 

but can someone provide the ID's of the people involved and who should be a child of who? Just so we get more than one set of eyes looking at this.

 

here is a help center article on the way to correct parent-child relationships.
