My 4th great-grandmother is read only. I would like to attach records to her.

Mariah Pulsipher KWJR-G5J is read only. She has 7 records that I would like to attach to her sources page. She also has a very generic source, Ancestry Trees, that I would like to delete. Can I be given temporary permission to make these changes?

Hi! I know it can be frustrating to not be able to add relevant resources to relatives' records so let's see what we can do to help. Being that your grandmother's record falls in this category, I have attached a link at the bottom which provides information about read-only records.

We have sent your request to the appropriate team and bookmarked this conversation so that if you need further assistance with this particular problem, we can follow up. If you don’t receive further help, please post another comment to this thread and I will get notified.

With the desire to add all those attachments, it sounds like you are really working hard on your family history. Adding attachments improves the site for everyone so thanks for taking the time to put in the work. 🙂

Here is the link to the policy.

Thank you! Do you know if I will get an email when they send me a message or do I need to monitor my Community message box?
