								My blood just ran cold as I thought my whole tree had disappeared...
I use FTM 2008. Tonight I tried to merge two people as I found out a brother and sister on one branch had respectively married a grandaughter and a son on another*. I backed up as requested and found all the relationship info in the whole tree had gone. 
So I tried to restore the backup, as I'd only entered in a couple of baptisms I could easily re-enter. It didn't work.  

 After ten minutes of fear, I found an old copy from this evening in the recycle bin and it seems to have worked. 
I suppose, then, that I cannot merge two people in this way?
*Margaret R and Richard R are siblings. Margaret R married Robert M, Richard R married Jane S. Jane S is Robert M's niece.
