I've just found out that a reli's aunty was his mother and who I thought was his dad is actually his uncle how do I change them around on my tree when he has descendents?

Can anyone help?

To delete anyone you have to start from the bottom and delete everyone below them that they are attached to.......however...... if their joined to you eg. direct line....you will not be able to delete them. When I made a mistake on my tree I emailed GR......explaining who I wanted removed {name ,year and place of birth} and GR did it for me...they were very helpful. It will probably be easier to delete them and add them again than to try and change their "relationship" .
hope this makes sense.
