I have been updating my family tree and noticed someone had added another child to my gggrandmother. This extra person is a duplicate of my ggrandmother but they listed her as a male due to the indexing which was in error. I cannot find any way to correct this major error. Help!

Thank you,

Catherine

    You should be able to just click the edit link next to sex, change it Female, then merge the duplicate in.

    If this really won't work, if you paste her ID number here so the entire situation can be evaluated, then someone can tell you exactly how to fix this.
