Can I create a new (separate) tree?

I am working on a couple of family lines that intersect only marginally with the main tree I have created on Genes Reunited. Is it possible for me to create a tree that plots these lines and keep it totally separate from my "main" tree?

you can open a second account as a "Free" member.........independently of your present tree........think you need a second email address though.......

I have a free account for the same purpose and use the same email address as my paid account.

You won't be able to use the free account to make contact with people (I just use my paid account) or open your tree to anyone.

You will be able to answer any contact made with you but won't be able to open the contact's tree if offered to you. I get round that by getting them to contact me by clicking on someone who is in my paid tree and opening their tree that way.
