Why would you want to delete names from Surname Summary. It's probably the most powerful and useful tool on GR for making contacts with other members who have the same family members in their tree. |

Names should only be in the surname summary if they are in your tree, so if there are extras I would contact GR about that glitch. |

Doing a search for a friend will not add a name to your Surname Summary. As mentioned it is a list of all the surnames in your tree, and the only way you can change it is by adding or deleting names from your tree. |

Hot matches are only matched on the name and birth year not place of birth. |
