So every time I update the current tree because the client has selected a different initial root I have to destroy perhaps 30 person objects and rebuild the whole lot again from scratch?
In a word, yes: if you have a different set of data, use a different set of objects to hold it.
Objects are not memory slots to be re-filled, they represent a specific instance of a thing. Creating and destroying 30 objects on a modern system is the work of nanoseconds, and not something to be avoided at all costs.
