Pearl of the South Report 21 Oct 2006 13:30

I have found a whole new line of rellies going back to 1700's but so far can't find the connection with my current tree. Living family insist they are indeed ours. Can I start a new tree with these people or is there only one tree permitted. If I print it up there may be others researching this tree. Please has anyone got any ideas. Thanks Annie. but what on earth is tribal pages. Havent seen that

You can't do it on genes without opening a separate account. However if you have your tree on tribal pages you can add unrelated individuals. A programme like family tree maker will also let you do this. I am in a similar position withtwo families from the same village with the same name. I feel if I could just get back another couple of generations all would be revealed. The problem both families seem to call all their male children Abraham, Solomon, and Samuel. Anne
