Nellie Walters has an ordinance stuck in 2007...might have gotten stuck in one of your merges.

(Can I make my parents READ ONLY so others don't come through and mess them up like one person has already?)

Thank you!

I am just a 'lowly' User/Patron

In regard to your secondary 'Question':

Can I make my parents READ ONLY so others don't come through and mess them up like one person has already?

Short Answer: 'No'.

You are not alone.

Many of us, would like (actually, love), to that for many of our immediate Family and Ancestors.

[ Especially, or Parents; and, Grandparents (plus: Siblings/Aunts/Uncles) ... ]

Been there, done that ... still do

But, unfortunately, such is not possible, due to the OPEN "Edit" nature of "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

As an aside ...

Here an old 'standby' of mine, that I have previously proffered on occasion ...

------------------

Most new (and, some old) Users/Patrons DO NOT understand the basic 'nature' and 'premise' of "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', when they join in.

Please let me explain ...

We do not have our OWN "Tree" in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

.We ONLY have "Branches" (ie. Ancestral" lines), that are interconnected, in this SINGLE "One" World "Tree", for all of us, that is "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

"Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is NOT like 'On-Line' "Websites" (eg. "Ancestry_com"; or "MyHeritage_com"; or, the like); and/or, 'standalone' personal (computer) programmes (eg, the OLD, now no longer supported, "PAF"; or, "Ancestral Quest"; or, the like).

We DO NOT have "Private"/"Personal" 'Trees' in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' like other 'On-Line' "Websites"; and/or, 'standalone' personal (computer) programmes.

We do not even, own; or, manage; and, are NOT even responsible for, the "Deceased" individuals/persons in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

And, most importantly ...

.We DO NOT even, own; or, manage; and, are NOT even responsible for, Our OWN "Deceased" Ancestors/Family/Relatives in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

"Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is built on a "Open Edit" Platform - hence, why any registered User/Patron can "Edit" (ie. Add, Delete; and/or, Change) ANY "Deceased" individual/person in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'. 

----------

Apart from continually, (1) addressing/fixing; and, (2) "Collaboration" (ie. Communicating) with the User/Patron, who may the 'wayward' "Changes", just in case you are not aware ...

The best thing to do, is to "Watch" (oops, sorry, 'old school', these days, "Follow") our most important Family members and Direct Line Ancestors. We can "Follow" up to a MAXIMUM of x4000 individuals/person at any one time. We can get, a Weekly "Notification", of ALL the "Changes", to those that we "Follow"; or, better still, we can literally, "Check" the "List", of those that we "Follow", on a Regular Basis (eg. "Daily", if one desires), to keep on top of, any 'wayward' "Changes", that need addressing/fixing.

[ By the way, I "Check" the "List", of those that I "Follow", on a DAILY Basis, it is quick; and, it is very easy; especially, if there has been nothing of note; and, one does to have to be concerned with anything. ].

IF, you do not, know about; or, use, that "Following" Feature; and, would like to, let us know.

I hope this helps,

Brett
