Hoping I'm not asking a stupid question here but I've just started my family tree and waded straight in without thinking about it- adding lots of details but now I'm wishing I had done my mom's family as a separate tree to my dad's. |

Hi thanks for your reply but I'm a little confused as 'what site I'm using' as I just assumed that as I was posting via Genes Reunited that these threads were ALL in reference to GenesReunited. Can you please advise what you mean by sites? Thank you for your advise regarding having an offline tree for back up but I have no idea how to do that - this is all very new to me. Any help much appreciated |

Yes, you are right but now and again people are asking about about trees on sites like Ancestry. |

As your parents are both inextricably linked to you, I’m not sure what benefit there would be in having separate trees for them |

I have a tiny tree on here, a slightly different one on Ancestry. My main tree is on Family Tree Maker. |

You can certainly have two trees on GR - but as Nameslessone mentioned, you'll have to register again (don't pay a sub for the free registration) in order to have the second tree. |
