How do I get WikiTree to recognize that I am the descendant of my Grt Grandfather's 2nd wife, not his first

Question

Whenever I check on degrees of separation, I find that Wiki Tree has related me to My Great Grandfather's first wife, but I'm not related to her.  Is there any way to change that?

Answer 1

Hi Margaret,

The degrees of separation app doesn't take into account whether you are related or not. It only shows "connections".

Comments

To add to what Tommy said, that's why WikiTree has a Connection Finder and a separate Relationship Finder. 

Yes, you are connected to your great-grandfather's first wife (because of the relationship he has to her). But you are not related to your great-grandfather's first wife. There is a difference between how we use those two words here on WikiTree.

Answer 2

Click the little X in the left hand corner of her 'connection', and she will be removed.
