	I'm assuming you mean that you already have the parents on your tree. Find your gr-gr-aunt on your tree. Click "add". Click "father" (or "mother") Click "Find existing" Start typing the father's (or mother's) name, then select the right one from the drop-down list which will appear. After that, as far as I remember, I think you select the correct couple (eg - you'll have the choice of "John Smith and Mary Bloggs", or else "John Smith and unknown"). Save.
	Researching: Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Member Since: September 2003 Posts: 6 Send Message	I have a married couple who are both my relatives, I'm not sure how I can join them to their ancestors on my tree. I have them married to each other but do not know how to join my great great aunt to her parents on my tree, I hope I am making sense here, please help.
