    I will try again ...

    .

    We do not have our OWN "Tree" in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".

    .

    We ONLY have "Branches", that are interconnected, in this SINGLE "One" World "Tree", for all of us, that is "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".

    .

    "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" is NOT like "Ancestry_com" or the like.

    .

    We DO NOT have "Private"/"Personal" 'Trees' in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" like other "Web" Sites; and/or, 'standalone' personal programmes.

    .

    We do not even, own; or, manage; and, are NOT even responsible for, the "Deceased" individuals/person in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".

    .

    "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" is built on a "Open Edit" Platform - hence, why any registered User/Patron can "Edit" (ie. Add, Delete; and/or, Change) ANY "Deceased" individual/person in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".

    .

    Rather than "Delete" an individual/person in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch"; which, can ONLY be done if you "Created" the individual/person; and, no other User/Patrons had any later input, the best thing to do, if the individual/person is incorrect, is to "Remove" or "Replace" them from, either, a "Couple" Relationship; or, "Parent-Child" Relationship.

    .

    What Relationship do you want to "Remove" or "Replace" individual/person from/in?

    .

    I did my Ancestry DNA through Ancestry. I have matched many cousins that trace to a different Great Grandparents. I have 4 of my Grandfathers children's birth certificates, each list him as a differnt DOB. I have an 1880 Fed censes that list a different DOB. This orther set of Great Grandparents does have a son born in this year. I would like to change the Great Greandparents on my tree without changing everyone else. I'm not sure how? thank you, Debboe
