Put it in a new Legacy database with a new name so you can distinguish it from the old one. Then you will have to do as you thought and get the information from the online trees one at a time and merge them. To prevent all this happening again, I suggest you only work on or update the one on your Legacy file on the computer. If you wish to put them online do it from your master database. Don't change or add anything anywhere else.

Where do I start and what do I do ? I feel I need to take one file, ? which one, and put it and another file together somehow, fix this somehow and then add another one and repeat the process what ever that is going to be. Can anyone understand what I am talking about PLEASE Cheers from Valerie Garton [nee Vaughan] in sunny Sydney. DNA - A086848, T756083, H947365, MyHeritage & gedmatch
