When I prepared my Gedcom before exporting it from PAF I did the hide living thing so that none of their information passed to GR at all.

Hi Ann I think contacts will see them on your tree as Living Surname with date and place of birth so not completely hidden. Heather

Apparently they still show up when you look at your tree, but if you give someone else access to your tree, then they don't show up for them. I think that's how it works anyway. Kath,. x
