Hi I cannot delete an incorrect relationship in my tree? Is there a way to do this?

You need to,get a curator to,detach somebody, it sends like.

What is the link to the profile you need detached?

Hi Private User it is deeply frustrating that you cannot delete relationships in a sensible way there are quite a few in my tree (which I added into Geni years ago but have extensively re-worked and evidenced since then). I would be grateful if you could delete the father-son relationship between: Father: John Bargrave Lindsay Deane and son: Joseph William Deane as I simply cannot prove the relationship between them. I am the only manager of both profiles and added both of them to the site. Many Thanks, Peter

Done!

That's great. Thanks Private User If you have a chance to have a look at William Neal his parents are wrong as are his siblings, the same is true for his wife Lucy Neal again I created all of these relationships (wrongly it now turns out) and cannot delete them. If you could help here too I'd be very grateful.

When you say the relationships are wrong, do you mean that they all need to be disconnected from each other? Or that they need to be connected in different ways?

Private User sorry what I meant is that in both cases the parents identified are not correct and need to be disconnected and that the siblings identified were identified through the parents and are also incorrect and need to be disconnected. Does that make sense? Thanks

Ok!

Go see if I got it right.

Private User perfect! Thanks so much!

You are welcome.

Hi there Anne :) - Can I delete the whole tree and start again?

Hello Kerry,

That's really a different discussion than the one we are in and should be it's own discussion.

To answer the question, the short answer is no. You are on the Geni World Tree over over 100 million profiles. Geni uses a shared tree system unlike most other genealogy tree websites. What you do on the tree affects every other user on the Geni World Tree.

I recommend starting a new discussion with the problems you are having. There are many people willing to help resolve whatever your issues are.
