Time for me to renew with GR,

I noticed that in viewing a tree I cannot see place born or date of marriage or where marriage took place etc.

Is there a way to correct this?

If not , I can't see renewing

If it's not broke don't fix it

Is it someone else's tree you're finding that with? Could be that they've uploaded it from their family tree programme and some details are not filled in. Apparently it's one of the ways you can get round not knowing a birthplace etc.

Thanks Kate, yeah, I guess it's the way they uploaded as I know I can see that info on my tree

Two separate issues here.

If the other member hasn't added the details then there is little you can do about it.

Or is it that you are saying you can not scroll to the information? I always use family view to look at information and size the page so that it fills the screen left to right without the need to scroll sideways. This leaves a right hand scroll bar to get down to the personal information that you describe.

Other tips to get more info on the screen are:- Hide unwanted menu bars at the top of you browser, or press F11 to get full screen view.
