    Depends what you mean by "replace".

    If you have uploaded a gedcom file to the Pedigree Resource File, you can easily replace it by uploading the new file and deleting the old file.

    If you mean replacing your information in Family Tree, the answer is almost certainly no. The only records you can delete in Family Tree are those you have added and no one else has since edited.

    If you have made errors in your tree, you need to edit the records to correct them. Uploading a gedcom and trying to add it to Family Tree will be messy and annoy a lot of people by creating duplicates of existing records.

    @Louis Eizenga

    You will get a better response if you start a new thread rather than adding to an old (or not so old in this case) one.

    Please explain exactly what you want to do in more detail.

    GEDCOM files on your computer can be edited manually although you need to know what you are doing.

    You cannot edit a GEDCOM file uploaded to FamilySearch. You would need to create a new one , upload it and then delete the old one.
