In the example you have described it should be relatively straightforward. Add an additional father with the correct details and move the children across. Then delete the old one. Alternatively change the details of the wrong person to what they should be.

If you are still unable to sort things out, email GR Support with the details of what you require changing and they will correct it for you.
