    Do not panic, there is ...

    .

    Firstly ...

    .

    Before "Deleting" any "Couple Relationship" ...

    .

    Make sure you appear (exist) as a Child for your Mother [&, Father (ie. Parents)]

    .

    Secondly ...

    .

    Pictorially:

    .

    Select the '"Pencil" 'Icon' in the "Family Members" Section; where, you appear (ie. exist) as a "Spouse" to your Mother ...

    .

    Delete Relationship _ Edit

    .

    Which brings up the "Pop-Up" ("Modal') 'Window' of the "Couple Relationship".

    .

    Delete Relationshp _ Couple

    .

    Select the "Delete Relationship" at the "Bottom".

    .

    Which brings up another "Pop-Up" ("Modal') 'Window' of the "Delete Couple Relationship".

    .

    Delete Relationshp _ Couple _ Delete

    .

    "Tick"/"Check" the 'Check Box'; and, select "Continue".

    .

    Which brings up another "Pop-Up" ("Modal') 'Window' to actually Delete the Relationship; and, requires the inclusion of a "Reason Statement" as why such action is being undertaken.

    .

    Complete that and "Save.

    .

    Done.

    .

    I hope this helps.

    @Judy Maher​

    Judy

    .

    Where are YOU seeing that you appear as you Mother's spouse?

    Is that in your 'FamilySearch' Account?

    Or, is that in your Mother's 'FamilySearch' Account?

    .

    The reason I ask such, is that; as, you are "Living", ONLY the User/Patron who "Created" the "Living" individual/person can see them.

    .

    The problem/issue should be easily able to be addressed/fixed; but, I am just trying to gauge on whose 'FamilySearch' Account you are seeing this - before, providing a suggestion.

    .

    As an aside ...

    .

    A few questions:

    .

    In YOUR 'FamilySearch' Account, do you ALSO appear as a Child of your Mother.

    [ as well as her Spouse ]

    .

    In your Mother's 'FamilySearch' Account, do you ALSO appear as a Child.

    [ as well as her Spouse ]

    .

    Are they DIFFERENT 'FamilySearch Person Identifiers" (ie. PID) for YOU in, BOTH, your, and, your Mother's, 'FamilySearch' Account(s).

    .

    I am seeing it on my family tree on Family Search. and yes I am the person who created this tree. There should be a way to correct this. I have tried everything other than cancelloing my page.
