    Merging Ancestrys names with mine.

    I sent a GEDCOM of my Reunion 12 family genealogy to Ancestry with14841 people. They could not tell me how to merge it in with the 1496 names that were already in their program so I had them send them back to me. When I got them back I had nearly 30000 names, I was to mark 14841 names but do not know how to break them away from duplications, can you help me?

      Merging my Reunion 12 Family names into my Ancestry Tree

      About two years ago I sent a Gedcom with 14,969 names, to start my HALLEY-LUCK-COLBERT-STTON FAMILY TREE. Since then I have searched out another 150 more names. I sent a new Gedcom of the 150 to Ancestry to add to the 14,969 to make a tree of 15,119 names. They couldn’t make the merge. How do I make the merge.

        This way should work:

        Upload the 150 name GEDCOM to Ancestry.com and create a new separate tree (I'll call it "Tree2"). See https://support.ancestry.com/s/artic...nloading-Trees
        Unfortunately you cannot merge trees on Ancestry.com but you CAN COPY individuals between trees. See https://support.ancestry.com/s/artic...y-Family-Trees
        Once you have copied each of the 150 individuals from Tree2 to your original tree ("Tree1") and are completely satisfied that everything from Tree2 is correctly in Tree1, you can delete Tree2. See: https://support.ancestry.com/s/artic...-a-Family-Tree
