Somebody has attached the wrong husband to my ancestor. He probably married somebody of the same name. I am finding so many errors like this, why don't people check properly? I feel like deleting the whole tree.

    It is easy to remove a wrong Husband and or replace the Husband in FamilySearch .

    Navigate to the person's page, find the "Spouses and Children" section, and then use the "Remove" or "Replace" option for the incorrect spouse. Ensure you provide a reason for the change, supported by research and evidence.

    Click on remove or replace husband if you have the correct information. That will take care of it for you. Please remember to add information as to why you took this action.
