How to delete duplicate entry please

Post by LindafromMurton » 08 Mar 2011 14:46

I have an Elizabeth Green with her parents and two children. She did not marry so there is no husband.

I did have a partner entered for her but decided to delete him. In the focus window I now have two sets of information for Elizabeth Green including parents and children.

Can you please advise how to get rid of the surplus entry.

Thank you.

I suspect you have two Family as Spouse records for her, go to the All tab and delete the one you don't want, or use the records window for Family Records and select both records and merge them.

Many thanks Jane. I used the All tab method.

I have been neglecting my research lately. I will now have the time to study how FH works. Just started on Queries.

Kind regards
