Not sure how this happened but my Grandmother's record has a marriage record linking her to an empty box. I can't find where to delete this record from. Even editing GEDCOM raw record from clicking on her name doesn't show something that reflects this marriage link. How do I find this and delete it?

Click on the text "... ... + Thelma Thomas" to get to the family page. There, from the Edit menu item, click "Delete".

Very odd. Any other idea I have would be guesses without access to the tree (and perhaps the database too). Wrong guess might cause more problems than it fixes.

Works for me if I go to the family page, click on "View this family" then from the Edit menu, click "Delete".

This indicates a 'family relationship.' If you are unable to access the 'family' page, then hold your mouse over the "... ... + Thelma Thomas" so you can right-click & copy the link.
Alternatively, you should see a link at the bottom of the page; make a note of that URL.
Go to that URL & delete the "family."

If you have deleted the relationship, but have your changes set to review status (pending), then the relationship will persist until you approve the change (deletion).

Every time I delete the relationship. the date and time gets updated but marriage is still there.





I don't get any requests in "pending changes" but it shows up that it has been deleted in the "Recent Changes" even though the relationship is still there!

The "Recent changes" block only shows new/updated records. It does not show deleted records.

> Every time I delete the relationship

Tell us exactly how you do this.

I'm not sure if we have a language problem, but you need to go to the > Family page, then go to > 'Edit', then > "Delete.'
The change log shows an unspecific "change."
How are you "deleting the relationship?" Are you deleting the 'Family?'

That link deletes the "last change" fact. This fact gets added/updated when you make any change.
If you delete it, a new one is created.

To delete the entire family record, you need this link:
