	Hi Carol, Kitty's right. Unfortunately the trees on GR aren't designed to import & merge one branch of a tree into your own. If you try to import a gedcom file into your tree. It will overwrite your tree & you'll lose all family members & photos in your original tree. The only way to add a new branch to your tree. Is as Kitty said, to add them one at a time. Copying & pasting each piece of info is the best way, as this will avoid potential errors in typing. Steve
