Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 0 Send Message	Hi Brian Thank you for your reply, but I have done that but they still do not show up under brothers/sisters for me and I do not show up on their immediate family - only as a relation. If there names were the same and we had the same father - no problems!!! At least I know they belong to me.....but shame I cannot show it under my immediate family!!

	You need to delete your half-brother then add another partner to the twice-married parent. Then add the children to the appropriate parents.

Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 0 Send Message	I was just looking at my family tree and my half brothers and sisters are not shown in my immediate family tree - we share the same mother but not the same father, whereas one of my brothers (who is in fact a half brother) is shown just because he had the same surname...as far as I am concerned they are my immediate family and so should be shown and not down as a relation? Is there anything I can do about this Denise
