When she came at Christmas she had access to the computer but didn't understand much about it. She never was into computers at school and wouldn't have known how to put her name on my tree. Its really freaky but now she's there I don't have the heart to remove her. Mary

I don't think you can, after all someone could go in and really mess it all up couldn't they adding all sorts you didn't know of. Weird stuff Kim

Sue Sorry I didn't word that very well did I. As far as I know you can't edit a tree you've been given access to - but maybe somebody knows otherwise. What I should have said was did Mary's foster daughter have access to Marys computer and add herself to the tree. Sorry for the confusion Jeanette

Jeanette, If you let someone look at your tree, is it possible that they can add to it? Sue.............. Mary, yes that is spooky........

Researching:

That is a bit spooky Mary! You haven't given her access to your tree have you and she's been in and added herself? Jeanette

I've just checked the names on my tree and suddenly I've gained a daughter ! Strange thing is, this girl was in my care as a foster child from the age of 15-18, is now a Mum herself and insists I am Granny to her baby,plus I always get a Mothers day card from her as she became part of our family. I never put her on my tree so how did she get there ? Mary What makes this even more weird if the fact that my first husband (now deceased) and I alway said if we had a daughter she would be called by this girls name - we had three boys !
