Hello, I clicked on my Time Line and saw my name at top, says 'Living' then below my birth date then joining my parents " burial dates'. Plus seems with my birth date a burial for me. It scared me so I deleted my birthdate but my name still at top.

I find family search very difficult to change and use as there is a lot of wrong information on this site.

How do i change that 'time line'?

    Hello Linda,

    Thank you for your question about the Timeline. The timeline is based on information in your Family Tree, and is not shown to anyone else, because of the privacy rules for the Living. The article link below may be helpful.

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/what-is-a-private-space-in-family-tree

    You can choose what things you wish to display on your timeline. The article link below will tell you how.

    You can find the same information by going to Help (?) top right in Family Tree, and ask your question in the search box.

    We hope this information is helpful.
