Edit Family History Details

You can update family history details in the Family History Details template.

2. Open the Histories template.
3. In the Family panel, select the row of a family member, and select Edit.
   The Family History Details template opens.

   

4. Update Name and Onset age.
5. To update the alive or deceased designation for a family member, do the following:
   1. Select Alive and well or Deceased.
      Note: The Alive and well and Deceased options are only turned on if you select Alive and well at the time of documenting a condition.
   2. If you select Deceased then update the Age at death and if the person died with the same selected condition then select Cause of death checkbox.
      Note: When you edit the Alive and well or Deceased option for a family member and there are multiple family history records for that family member, you must manually delete the other records and re-enter the conditions with the updated designation for Alive and well or Deceased.
6. Save and close the template.
