More straightforwardly. while deleting a name with ancestors can be a problem, if you are the starting point for the tree you should be able to delete your false grandparents and add your mother as your mother, then delete her as your sister. Then you can add your father, then your grandparents. If you have gone back further in time without realising your error, you may have to start again to add the earlier ancestors correctly. Regards Stan.
