Hi everyone.
I've only recently started using the Familysearch tree as I saw a YouTube video showing a possible way to break down a brick wall or two. As seeing my ancestors as part of a world tree, it recommended seeing if they were on there already and the possibility of another researcher maybe having found a piece of evidence I didnt could open things up.
Although anything I see online I take with pinch of salt, I could in theory then research what they've found myself and either accept or most likely discard as rubbish!
Problem is, I started constructing my tree and things were going well. I added a great uncle, and lots of ancestors opened up. After going through them checking all the vitals, it was all correct apart from a slight typing error which could happen to anyone!
I entered another ancestor and yet more ancestors became visible, and to my shock were all correct!
I was very impressed by this as it saved me from adding all this information myself.
I entered another ancestor and found that the match it was giving was correct, but their mother was listed as someone completely wrong.
After accidentally pressing YES I now can't delete the mother as its been done by other people.
I cant find any way to remove this ancestor and its really annoying that my tree is wrong and cant do anything about it.
Anyone else had this issue and what to do about it?
Thank you.
David.
