Hi all, I have a tree on Ancestry which is a public member tree, as far as i was aware only i could see living relatives, however i think others can still see all the living people, dates of birth and the photos that i have added for them, does anyone know how i change this to hide my living relatives or how to make my tree private so that people can only access it thought contacting me directly? Many thanks Julie

when some one looks at tree you can still see all names if they just view relations but has them down as living on actual tree Jeanette

under your tree should be two options shared and not shared make sure you click the unshared tree then no info comes up about your tree without they contact you
