It should not matter which tree version you are using.

You can only delete a name from your tree if it is at the top or the bottom or has no other branches attached to it. For example, you can remove or delete the child of a relation. However, if you have added the wrong father, you would need to remove any children first before deleting him. You will see a message saying you cannot delete a relation if other names are attached to that person. You will need to look at your tree and either remove names from the bottom upwards or from the top down depending on where the relation is that you wish to remove.

If you can not work out a way of doing it then contact GR support as suggested, and they will correct it for you.

I believe you're using the NEW tree. I gave up on it. Too many things went wrong. Use the OLD one.......... hover over "family tree" until the list appears.

If you cant amend/delete it then suggest you contact Genes with the problem and ask them to sort it for you
