Delete Vs. Remove

Rebecca A Alitagtag

What is the difference between the delete relationship button at the bottom of a parent-child screen and the remove person button? What happens? How do I know which to choose? I searched through the Family Search Help group under Family Tree, but there was no result found. I also searched the Community page in general and didn't find one that related to this question.

Hope this helps. In each case, there is a pop-up that appears when you choose that option:

REMOVE OR REPLACE - allows you to remove one of the parent-child's relationship or replace that parent with another Person ID (PID) already existing in the Tree. Or if you click the REMOVE OR REPLACE below the child does the same as DELETE but also also allows you to REPLACE both parents.

DELETE - removes the child from both Parent's relationship.
