Click on 'Family Trees' on the home page - don't use the drop down option.

Find the one he wants to delete, and then 'Manage Tree' which is the 2nd of the 2 options under the tree name.

Right hand side under the 'Export tree' button is

***Delete your tree from Ancestry. This includes deleting all people, photos, stories, etc. in your tree Warning! This action cannot be undone! Delete your tree***

The 'Delete your tree' is in red and underlined. Click on that. If there are any other instructions, they are self evident.

A friend has allowed someone to use his membership to Ancestry to search for their ancesters but now wants to delete their entire tree as they now have their own membership.

Does anyone know how to do this?
