My great-grandmother is Laura Roth, married to Frank J Holz (Frank #1). Somewhere along the line, another Frank Holz, Frank O. Holz (Frank #2) was added to her line as a connection, possible spouse. The two Franks are different people. Frank #2 was married to Laura Ashley, no direct relation to me that I am aware of .

How do I remove this connection?

Thank You!!

    (Your image was not visible when I posted or I would not have asked the PID question.)

    It's a relatively simple process. How you access it will vary, slightly, depending on if you are using the "New Person Page" or the "Previous Version."

    You'll also want to look at any children attached to the couple. I see at least one suggested duplicate for the son Francis. Those will need to be merged if they are indeed the same person.

    You may want to contact the other person(s) working on this family. You can see the user names in the changelog and send a private message by clicking on the username.

    The basic instructions are in this help article. https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/a-person-in-family-tree-has-the-wrong-spouse If anything is not clear or you need more help, please ask.

    Is this your great grandmother - https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/GVSX-9GP ?

    It's always easier for us to show you specifically. Knowing the PID (the identifier GVSX-9GP) makes it easier for us to help.
