Member Since: June 2010 Posts: 9 Send Message	Hello If I want to move a tree to another site, will it still remain on this site? I want to have duplicate trees. Any help or advice will be much appreciated. Thank you Hillary

	It will remain on this site. Choose 'Export GED' from the family tree menu, and you will get on email with an attachment. You can use the attachment to transfer your tree info into a new site. Andy

	A word of warning: If you have trees on several sites and your trees become quite large then maintenance of all the trees can become very time consuming. If that is going to be a problem it is best to keep one of your trees as a master and update the other sites from the master.
