Joy Could you not ask them where in your tree they are talking as you can't see it Julie |

I maintain my tree in FTM on my PC. Before I upload a GED to GR, I always take a copy and then remove all living individuals except myself (including my own children) from that copy. The GED is created from the copy. Sometimes this means whole branch of the tree is removed - as their ancestors go as well, but I feel that this is safer than risking offending some of the many friends and contacts that I have made through GR. It takes time, but I believe it is worth the effort. Lin |

Hi Have just had another email saying it is when she clicks on a certain name that the whole line come up,ie living relatives.But i know i havent copied any names down,in fact until today i didnt even know her familys names.I only viewed her trree once but was more interested in my grt grandfathers line.And it was then she emaile4d me the line i was interesred in. Could it be where the trees were shared? I have deleted her as a shared tree now,hoping this will sort it out. joy |

This does sound like a re-occurrence of a bug that was around a few weeks ago when changes were made by GR. It kept showing your own tree when you were trying to look at something on someone else's tree. It would be worth your contact getting in touch with GR.They respond quite quickly. Lin |
