Someone else added a person to my tree and I believe it is in error. The 'widow,' who remarried, died before her original husband. The wife is correct but not the second marriage. How do I know who added this so that I can contact them about the error? Or how can I correct this myself?

TIA

    @KathyBuckley In order to see the changes made to a profile you'd need to click on the 'Show All' option for Latest Changes.

    From there it's a matter of scrolling thru the Changes [which are in order most recent to oldest] to find the entry detailing the 'erroneous' spouse. There you'll find exactly when the spouse was added and by whom. Clicking on the the Member ID allows you to exchange ideas/thoughts and begin the conversation

    @KathyBuckley Need a little more help to figure out what you are looking at…. When you say 'my tree' it sounds like you are speaking about the collaborative FamilyTree. If so, it would be helpful to provide the PID associated with the individual you are working on
