Over the years this problem arises again and again, and it is at the least very irritating, and at the worst deeply distressing when it happens. Once someone has your details, or those of living family members, you can get Genes to remove them from the other person's GR tree, but if they have put the information into the public domain on other sites, there is little you can do. |

YES, I have been caught out as well. I have most of my tree on 2 other peoples trees, including my grandchildren. They are not even related in anyway except we have a name in common. To prove them wrong I sent for the marriage cert and emailed them a copy, but they still have my entire family on their tree. What a pointless thing to do, They were proud of the fact they had done their entire tree on line, without certs or parish records, well to be exact mostly MY TREE. |

This is a difficult one -the knowledge I've obtained from sharing other people's trees, and the information I've been able to give others is for me the heart of the whole tree-making thing. |
