Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 7 Send Message	How do i add a new person who is currently unconnected to anyone on my tree, but who i know is a relative. I have records back 6 direct generations but am having trouble with siblings . Everyone gave their kids the same names. Someone else has a similar tree . We have a common great great great great grandfather but we cant connect through other generations, if that makes sense. I want to put in the info i have collected from many sources as a side tree then work on making the connection. How do i do this.

	Similar post with an answer https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/general_chat/thread/1373074 Basically you can’t have unconnected individuals on a GR tree.
