Merging Families

Merging Families

Families can not be fully merged, but you can move a child from one family to another.  To do this, scroll to the bottom of the child’s profile page and you’ll see the option.

Tip:  Before moving the child, rename one of the two families so that you can tell them apart.  For example, the family that you’re moving the child out of (and will subsequently delete) add an “X” to the end of their name so you know that this is the family you do not want to keep.
