There has been strange things happening in my tree today. People are appearing several times. Disappearing altogether. Ending up with the wrong links . Refusing to store new entries. Must be confusing to anyone who has access to my tree. Thank goodness I keep a copy on my computer

If you have a problem with your tree on here, tell GR about it.

Reggie,

From past experience that is a waste of time. It normaly cures itself in a few days.Just hope it does not cause to much confusion. Just posted in case others are having problems

I admit that on most occassions I am on the website I encounter some hitches, lately I have not been able to always be able to add new relatives, I just get the search for existing relative option only. I sign off at that stage and usually I can do my additions to the tree when I sign back on, but it can sometimes be difficult to remember where I left off, as my tree has got bigger. I still love the website, I have been absorbed in research for hour after hour, it is such a pleasure, you never know what you are going to find out next.

Ha Ha Jean.
GR must have Gremlins
I uploaded a gedcom last weeks and immediately found that I had forgotten to add some newly found marrigaes.
For the first time in many years, I decided to add them to my GR tree manually.
However, the one option that I needed was Add Existing Person... only to find that this option had vanished , yet for you, it was the only option that you got!
What is going on?
