    To detach the person as a husband, bring up the wife's page, click on the edit icon in the marriage box, click on Remove or Replace and follow the directions to remove the husband. Do the opposite if you are removing the wife.

    If you've added the person as a child, click on the edit icon next the their name where they are listed as a child. Click on Remove or Replace next to the child's name and you can remove both parents. If you only want to remove one parent, click on the Remove or Replace next the to the parent's name.

    hi @Harvey Coley​ so I don't think you want to remove the person, but I'm thinking what needs to be done is a simple edit?​this info from the FS help section should be able to guide you, if not, please let us know the specific issue and paste a link to the person here and we will be able to take a look and see if we can be of more assistance :)

    Due to the nature of your 'Question' ...

    .

    I am "Moving" this 'Question' of yours, in the 'Group' being "How to Use FamilySearch Community", in this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, to the 'Group' being "General Questions", in the Forum; so that, the members of that group can answer/assist you.

    .

    That Group is "Public", which you can join, if you wish.

    .

    As, that 'Group' being "How to Use FamilySearch Community" relates to HOW to USE the "FamilySearch.Community" Forum", rather than for research help/assistance.

    .
