That's right Elizabeth and Doreen.... go into the contacts profile, and delete the contact... it will also remove the tree accesses.

I am very pleased you are not going to be sitting there for weeks deleting individuals from your tree, Doreen!

Love

I think - trying to remember whether I did or not! - that you can do it it by going to your list of "contacts" under the messages tab, and deleting that name. This is off the top of my head, I'm not going to experiment by deleting any of my contacts as a test case! You would of course lose any correspondence you'd had with that contact.

Researching:
Dominy & Croom in Dorset, Rutherford & McElhatton in Northumberland. Dendy and Thorp

One name at a time I'm afraid, laborious and slow but you'll get there.

I hope there aren't thousands of names to be deleted, you may be some time.

Researching:
Lovell, Morse, Baker, Duval, Mortlock, Gibbs and Bristow.

How do you mean, Doreen? Is it a branch that you want to disconnect?

Sometimes that can be difficult.... you would have to go to the very last person on that branch, and delete one by one back until you reach the point where the person you want off is joined or connected... it is sometimes not possible, and you might have to ask GR to do it for you...

Good luck.
