If someone has added a child to a pair of your relatives who you know is simply wrong, you should disconnect that child - with a reason. Do NOT delete the child as the child probably exists but with different parents. To disconnect the child, go to one of the parents' Person screen. Make sure you can see the Family Members. Make sure you can see the list of children to those parents. (The arrow points down to hide them and up to show them) You should then see a pencil in a box against - click that box for the unwanted child and you'll see a box to Remove Or Replace the child. It will then ask you whether you want to break the link between the child and its parents or replace the existing parents with others. If they have incorrect spouses, it's a similar process but with the pencil icon between the parents. It should be easy enough to remove them - slightly long-winded, perhaps. The problem is the morons who just add it back because clearly there's only one John Smith in all of Lancashire. (Worse, they add a John Smith from Yorkshire!!!) Stuff should only be unlinked that is incorrect. Adrian
