Eddie, I've had the very same happen to me. I too, couldn;t believe it possible, but obviously it can.

That would happen if the person had removed membership and tree from the site.

Yesterday whilst looking for info on a (long dead) relative I "searched all trees". This came back with only 3 matches for an uncommon name. Two of the matches I am in contact with but the third looked very promising, being the same family name as my widowed rellie re-married into. I sent the person a message here at GR and as the relative in question is a mutual great grandmother I expected a prompt reply. Today I find that the persons tree has disappeared, it no longer comes up in searches and the message I sent is not in my sent messages folder. How is this possible?
