I have been trying to create a separate tree of my wifes lineage but it seems to be beyond my feeble brains capabilities!

Any help would be much appreciated.

I could be worng but I think you have to either add her branch to yours or set up a second account as its one tree per account.

If anyone knows hoe to have mulitipl trees on one account on here then feel free to correct me, as I would love to do this, as I am too lazy to have multipul accounts.

I have my tree spilt up into the revelant branches on ancestry, and keep a basic tree on here as the hot matches tend to be more relevant. Ancestrys obessed with giving my 'tips' telling me my relatives were in America, luckily I know this is wrong or things could get messy.

It can be done using FTM

You would need to input your own tree

Next press "People"

Followed by "Add unrelated individual

Input you wife's name & start her tree

Lastly you would need to input the entire file to GR
