How to add and remove an Ancestor on FamilySearch

[@Kris19501]

Thanks for the great information.

Thank you, Larry! Great information and appreciate your efforts.

Good point on the removal. I worry about merging. I find, sometimes, later back in the tree the family isn't mine.

You say this is #9 in Introductory Series but that info is not in the title. It would really help to put it in the title so when trying to work your way through a series you can go in order. Thank you so much for your videos. They are extremely helpful. Best regards, Jane

I’ll look at the thumbnails and find my mistake and correct thanks for catching

Great information Larry. BTW, have you ever thought of doing a troubleshooting video. I’m sure in your years of genealogy that people have said, “you show this or that on your screen but I don’t have it. Why not?” Just food for thought. You were showing something yesterday (can’t remember what), but you had an info bar at the top and I didn’t. I finally figured out that you were on a computer and I was on my iPad. Problem solved!

If you find a person that has an ID number on your tree has another ID number with a slightly different name or date information is there a way to merge those two records

Where is the easiest place to find starting information on Family search trees.

[@DNAFamilyTrees]

their help section is a bit outdated but is still the best place for that info

I put someone on my tree that I later found was not my ancestor. How do I remove them so I can put the correct ancestor?

[@DNAFamilyTrees]

whew, this is TRICKY go to the SPOUSE of the person, then on profile page click edit (small/tiny icon looks like pencil ona paper) next to the person you want to change and thereis a remove/replace option. I mess this up allt he time so good luck :)
