Deleting entries in Lost Cousins

    I have removed a few incorrect people in my FTM, if then I upload the relevant GEDCOM into FTA and use the "Lost Cousins" tab, will those deleted entries be removed from Lost Cousins (they had been wrongly entered into LC also)?

    No. FTAnalyzer only adds. You will have to go into Lost Cousins and remove them there.

    Hmm.. Thanks Tim, I thought as much.

    So, if I can't remember those deleted, then I need to check each LC family group against my FTM record - that will take a while methinks.

    But thanks again, next time I will take a note of the deletions

    How good are your Excel skills?
    You can copy/paste Lost Cousins data and export the census facts from FTA and use vlookup or filters.

    Fairly good with Excel, though I'm a newbie with FTA - tks Tim I like that idea, I will look into it.
