Thanks for your suggestions
I had gone back to my cousin on one of my trees and traced through from
2 possible connections researching ...
One was a new tree that I hadn't come across before because my cousibn was only given one Christian name and I did find a few short items from that branch that I didn't know before but although the tree that I want tn see was also there but a pink line told me the usual message "family tree maker is updating this tree" etc
