    Question, I have a line back to the Mayflower with both sides of my family, initially the majority of presidents and such were on my mothers side. The I finally discovered all of my fathers ancestors, and now many of those famous people have transferred to my Fathers side. I know we are related on both sides but why now will only one line show up?

    The relationship feature on FamilySearch shows the user the closest relationship.

    How do I prevent someone from changing my ancestors information, that I put up? It is annoying!

    I’ve been active on family search for years, how can I find out if I’m on the shared family tree or private tree?

    Searched famous ancestors. At the top it shows a woman marked Mother and 2 men one on each side marked Fathers. I would expect this means Mother had 2 husbands. However the dates don't jive. One of the men was not even born before the Mother's death date. Can someone enlighten me?

    https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/JAMES%20EHLI The famous relatives feature of the website links to your tree. First confirm the dates on your free are correct by searching out sources that prove birth and death dates in your tree, then when it links to the famous relatives, it should be correct. If you need help, consider making an appointment with FamilySearch Support regarding any research questions. They can be a great resource with specific family line and research questions you may have.

    Hello. I rarely do research on Family Search as I find it very confusing. But I'm a bit frustrated right now because during, and right after, the recent 2024 RootsTech I had received emails regarding some "Famous Relatives". Sure, they are way back, but still fun to discover. I wanted to share this fun info with other family members and now those emails are gone. When I go to the email and click on it, it now says "Page not found" and it is blank. Where did this go? How can I find it. I did find some of those "famous relatives" by clicking around on this website, but couldn't find the others that had been named in the emails that were sent to me. Now I can't find any of it. ??? I'm so confused. I don't even know if this particular spot is the place to write. Anyhow with suggestions? Thanks so much!

    I am doing Canada 1921 Federal Census (MQKR-NFW JSL) I find a deaf person labeled as “deaf-mute which is not acceptable in 21st Century. In Relationship to Head of Household no listing for deaf person. Name is Margaret Bercroft line 6. This is second deaf person in 1921 Census this week. I do it better and improved it. Thank you. Timothy Kelley.

    Click the Temple tab, then select "My Reservations" then identify which ordinance you want to reprint. Click the box to the left of the ordinance, then select Print and follow prompts.

    How do I replace my family tree file with an updated version? Also how do I post a note asking for information for an Addenda to Esther Woodworth-Barnes book "Huling Genealogy-Descendants of James & Margaret Huling of Newport, RI & Lewes, DE" where browsers may see it?
