I was wondering how someone can fall off your family tree. Agatha Christie was showing as my 10th cousin once removed on the activities page under famous ancestors. All of a sudden she is not listed there and when I go to her page and try search relationship it now says no relationship found when it used to show the family tree going from her to my father. How did this happen?

    Sometimes relatives go missing when someone has disconnected that person from your family line. We suggest you go to the end line person of the line Agatha Christie was on, and look in Recent Changes or Latest changes to see if there has been a relationship deleted.

    If you have sources that indicate there was a valid relationship between you and the deleted person, you may add that deleted person back by their ID How do I add a family member to the pedigree in Family Tree?
