Changing from deceased to living

I can't seem to get this to work - changing someone from deceased to living. I click on the living box in the profile, it removes the death data but when I hit Save, it reverts back to the way it was - with the person still deceased and the death data back.

Am I missing something here?

Hi Sharon, also check the BIRTH, as you may find that this would make the person, extremely old to be living up to 2016.

Thanks, but it's not that. I am trying to change from deceased to living for people who were born in the 1920-1930s. It has worked for me in the past, but now it doesn't. Very annoying.

Hi Sharon, ensure that you take out all that you have typed in regarding DAY Month year and Place of DEATH.DO THIS FIRST

Then Accept LIVING

If you just ACCEPT Living your DETAILS are still in , so then TP reverts back to the original Not Living..

JUST tried it on Five Names and all converted correctly.

All the best

Thank you so much Les! Yes, that works for me now too.

Works differently than Ancestry where, if you are doing the same thing, just ticking the box for Living automatically removes the death info.

TP should put a little notation that you have to remove the death information before ticking the box.

Thanks again!
