	You have to use the 'mother' box to put in the info.......otherwise you'll get the 'doubling-up' to which you refer. The box is created by the system as soon as you enter someone's father's details. There is a button 'edit tools'....click on that for the dropdown which includes 'delete' You can ONLY delete starting from the last person in the line............

Member Since: November 2004 Posts: 1 Send Message	Can anyone explain how I can delete names I have doubled up? Also I seem to get an empty mother box, for example, then another one with the name in. I am confused. Please help. Thanks Sunni
