Hi Valerie You have to delete all children first. So with the line you are trying to delete start with the family members with the most recent dates of birth. Then delete their parents and siblings, then their parents and siblings and so on. Hope this makes sense. If it all gets too much for you (lol!) email the Genes Team and they'll do it for you Jeanette
