Sue,

You may consider the fact that this person is just a name collector and doesn't care if their tree is right or wrong.

Regards,
Gai

I've never come across that before but I see what you mean. When you click on "contact" it says this member has chosen not to be contacted. You can, however, add a comment to the tree.

Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Sue, I don't think you can if they have opted not to be contacted.

Could you not put 'comments' on the people in the other tree to indicate they have the wrong person
