I have one TMG family tree which contains both my wife and my family tree which contains 9 families related directly to me and 13 to my wife each of which has a different custom flag. My mother's maiden name was GIBSON and, in addition to my direct GIBSON relatives marked by a Y in the GIBSON flag, there are also some other GIBSON families most of whom I am not certain yet whether they are related to me and my family although I have also given them a GIBSON flag and a Y. (In the GIBSON list in Second Site, all the GIBSONs who are related have an icon of three people - a family - to indicate which of these GIBSONs are related to me and which are not) When I send a SS to a family member, I send the family who are related to me and that particular family member but this time I don't think that will work. I am preparing a SS tree on a DVD to give to my sister in law when she comes up this week and that will involve 13 families. I have prepared a new custom flag to use for all her family but I am not certain how to ensure to give all the people who have these 13 family flags without losing any of the original flags or without trying to add this new flag to these people manually one at a time! I know that there must be some way to do it but unfortunately I can't find how it is done TIA please Jim. 9 in the list
