I've just started setting up my family details and I've made an error which ended up duplicating a person, and now I can't delete him.  Would you advise how to do it please.

Regards,

Please, go to the person in your family tree, click the pen icon, select "Edit Individual" then click "Delete this individual" at the bottom of the edit form.

Thanks for your reply.  That's exactly what i did and the name was deleted but the box remained with ?? where the name was.  How do I get rid of the box as well as the contents, please?

I'm not sure if this is correct, but try http://gw.geneanet.org/richo007_w?n=richmond&oc=0&p=leigh&type=tree

It's the attaching of Leigh's husband, which duplicated and when i tried to delete them I got what is there.

Thanks.

Thanks very much.  I'm probably a klutz at this stuff, but I prefer to think you are a genius!
