I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and maybe your website could even address it. I was at an antique store and found a wonderful old frame for MY old family photo. However, IN the photo when I purchased it was someone else’s old family photo. The photo is in very very good condition, but I don’t just want to throw it away. I’m sure that someone would love it know it’s out there and if there was a way to find that person/s I would love to get it to them. It was a professional photo and has the name of the company and city in which it was taken. I’m sure that would be helpful to someone as well as even seeing the photo on line.

What do you think? Is there away your website could help with this? May be a “lost and found- for photos or even documents”.

Thanks.

Someone has entered very inaccurate information into their Ancestry.com database about my grandfather and his ancestors — they have linked him to a very wrong family. I contacted the person and that person emailed me that he/she(?) would correct it. That was almost a year ago and it has not been corrected. Already other people have accessed that incorrect information and have added it to their database assuming it is correct. Help! …. I need to stop this inaccurate information from continuing to be duplicated. Perhaps if there was a place or spot on each database for “comments” it would allow me to notify others to be cautious of possible inaccurate information on that user’s databse.

You would find the person who is closest to the correct line, but is wrong and go into that person’s ‘edit profile’ under their name on their main page. Top right in the edit screen is ‘delete _____” If you delete that person all the ones behind it will be gone also.

I linked into another family’s up-line but later thought it strange that the last name paternally had changed. Though several centuries along through “Hints” I decided to research where the change had taken place and discovered the (I beleive) true up–line heritage. Now how do I UNDO all those other who are not in my tree and replace them?

Sorry, that should read:

HELP! I have been trying to find some contact for a question that I have, and I cannot find it addressed under the help section. Could you please forward this along to whomever would know the answer to this question?
My question is this: How do I link branches of my tree when the same person appears more than once? Example: I have an ancestor who married her husband’s uncle after her 1st husband’s death. As such, all of the children down stream are related twice by blood. However, I cannot figure out how to connect these two branches of the family tree. I don’t want to have to re-enter all of the resulting children /grandchildren / great-grandchildren…Can you help?
