after feeling so pleased with myself and getting a heap more names to add to my tree i have realised that i have entered someone as a son and not as a brother as they should be is there any way around this as if not i will have to delete about 20 names and start again and i dont think i have the willpower please tell me that there is a way round this abs

Amend the details dont delete them if there isnt a son to put in his place use question marks. I put in an Uncle for someones father tried to delete got all the messages then thought of just ammending the details it worked. As i have over 100 names in my tree I didnt want to start from scratch and had terrible trouble trying to load from Gedcom originally didnt want to try that again!!
