Can someone tell me how I do this please? I have a tree on here already so as soon as I type in the GR website address, it takes me straight to my home board. I want to start one in my Husband's name for his family. thanks Audrey

Audrey...have just tried it for you. On the left in the green panel, click sign out. The it gives you the option to sign in. Click on there without filling in any info. You should get to a page where you can register for free. You will need a different username and password for your husband. I think that should do it!

Hi Audrey, In the menu on your left click on 'Sign out'. On the next page that shows click on the Genes Reunited logo with the four people on it. The next page will have a different menu on the left, click on register for free. Hopefully that should work and you can put yor husbands details in. Fiona.

Hi Audrey, It's one tree per user ID. So if you want another tree on GR you have to start a new user account. Why don't you just add your husband's tree to yours? Paul

Audrey, the tree program on here isnt very good and its very vulnerable - why not buy a family tree maker program with all the facilities it can offer like your own web page and being able to split family files, add photos, videos, music etc. S and N Genealogy has it for about £12 at the moment with a free sub for a months ancestry. You can back it up to cd and the internet so you will not lose your work in a computer or site crash.
