I don't want to recreate their record if they already have one in family search and want to connect my tree to theirs. My Aunt has done a lot of work on our tree and want to connect to it. Please help

    If they are living, then the only thing you can do is create your own private copy.

    Any deceased person she has worked on you have full access to since we are all working in the same tree. You may need to create a few living people to connect limbs of the tree, but I would suggest not putting much in besides their names if you know there are existing Living/Private copies with extensive information.

    . . . and for deceased persons - if you proceed to enter them - the system will normally let you now - if it finds a duplicate record in the system - and allows you to link that existing individual instead of duplicating if you indeed feel it is a match.
