How to remove yourself from FamilyTreeNow

Removing yourself from FamilyTreeNow is free. It takes a few minutes.

Open the FamilyTreeNow opt-out pageTrack it

Steps

  1. Open the opt-out page, choose Begin and search for yourself.
  2. Open the record and make sure it's you, not someone with the same name.
  3. Press the red Opt Out button on the record. Repeat for each record that's you.
  4. Allow up to 48 hours. If you found your record through a search engine instead, copy its web address and send it through their contact page.

Afterward

Mark it as requested in your tracker. Once it's gone, search familytreenow.com for your name again in about 3 months: sites like this re-list people when new records come in.

Still showing in Google?

Once your listing is gone, Google can keep showing the old result, with your details in the preview, until it visits the page again. To speed that up, right-click the result, choose Copy Link Address, and paste the link into Google's free Refresh Outdated Content tool. It works once the page itself is gone.
