RLP 278: Other Relationships on FamilySearch
11/06/23 • 22 min
1 Listener
Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the "other relationships" option in the FamilySearch Family Tree. After the vitals, other information, and family members sections, you will see the other relationships section of the profile page. If you click “add other relationship,” you’ll see a popup with a dropdown list allowing you to select certain relationships from a list. Many of these are friend, family, associates, and neighbor (FAN) type of relationships. Join us as we discuss how to use this section of the FamilySearch Tree.

RLP 279: Unmerging on FamilySearch Family Tree
For blog post:
Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about how to unmerge profiles on the FamilySearch Family Tree. When there are many people of the same name who lived in an area, it's common for the profiles to get accidentally merged. When you notice an issue where multiple people have been merged into one person, there are several steps to follow to unmerge the people while preserving the original profiles.
