536417 2007-03-28 05:24:00 Hi Folks

I am having trouble with my family tree input data - I made an error with the input of my father - he has ended up being the son of his grandparents!! :blush:

I have tried to change his parents but the "CHANGE PARENTS" box with the drop down list shows his grandparents as his parents and I can't change this.

I now have the situation of his father and my father both having the same parents!!

Is there anyone please who can help?

TIA

Many thanks for your reply. We had thought of contacting the site direct but first thought that someone on F1 may have experienced the same problem and knew the answer.

I will now have the confidence to contact them after reading your comments.

Kind regards

May be naive but could you do it by editing each entry ? You may not know the name of his grandparents but put in "unknown" ?

I have just closed my PC where I have Genesreunited and haven't set up shared files with this laptop. Sorry, haven't got time tonight to log back on to check.

Thank you for your reply. I tried editing (and clicking here and there) but because I have accidentally got my George's mixed up, (my father and grandfather were both George) George the son is attached as son to his grandfather - confusing I know.

To change parents it says highlight the correct one in the drop down box but it only gives the grandparents, so I appear to be stuck with only them to choose from.

I would appreciate it if you could look at yours sometime and perhaps twig on how I get out of the muddle.

Failing that I will contact the Genes support team as Rob_in_Guitar suggested.

Many thanks for your time
