I am not my daughter -- How to change
I am not deceased -- nor am I my daughter -- my husband is not the spouse of my sister -- all of these errors are grossly incorrect. I don't know who in the world posted these inaccuracies.

If this is on your profile, that you entered, we can't see it since you are living, and only you can see that profile.
If it is another profile, showing you as deceased, then please share the PID number, and someone may be able to see where the problem arose.

On the "Thelmarie Horton Family Tree" --- (I did not enter this incorrect information about myself)
(1) Rev. Paul David Curtis, Sr (G432- ZR8) --- states incorrect info "the husband of my sister" --- (Rev. Paul David Curtis, Sr. was my husband, Thelmarie Alexander Curtis Horton (GMYR-ZF5)
(2) Shows my Dad and Mother -- with me (Thelmarie Alexander - GMYR-ZF5) listed below them -- This is Correct
(3) Shows my name again, but lists me as my Daughter - (G7MM-MYWW) - Thelmarie Alexander (1942-Deceased)
I don't know who is responsible for this CRAZY-Mixed Up Tree - but it certainly wasn't me.

@Thelmarie Curtis Horton, if you go to the Change Log of G7MM-MYW (Latest Changes - Show All) and scroll all the way down, you can see that a user named Debra Richardson created the profile three years ago. If you click her username, you can see that there's an email address. You can try contacting her using both that address and the "Message" button (which uses the internal messaging system on FS), but after three years, there are no guarantees that either method will get through.
But in any case, you should click the edit (pencil) button next to the "Death" conclusion on that profile, change the radio button to "Living", click Save, type a reason ("this is me" will do just fine), and click Submit. A FamilySearch representative will make the status change, at which point the profile should disappear from your view, because it will then be in Debra's private space. How long this takes depends on the current workload, but in my experience, it should be less than a week.
The same process works on all of your living relatives (or anyone else you find who you know to be living -- I've done it for a friend's aunt and uncle). For your deceased relatives, you can fix the relationships using the edit/pencil buttons in the Family Members section and the "remove or replace" process. The Help Center has some articles on doing that:
