I have several relationship paths to direct ancestors that are wrong (don't show up as  blood lineage). Is there a way to refresh the paths?

  Yes, look for the refresh icon after the path descriptionSince calculating the shortest path between all profiles in a grid of 115 million profiles is a heavy job Geni caches the results for minimum a week and reuses them or parts pf them when finding a path. If there recently have been merges in the area you might get errors like this where the path to a merged-in profile which was more distant might be displayed.
  
  One week after a path is stored you will see the refresh icon after the path description which allows you to recalculate the path. Holding the cursor over it tells how old the cached path is.
  If you don't see the icon you should wait a couple of days until the 7 days have passed.
  
  Alternatively you should try to "walk the path" you have the opinion should be the shortest, from profile to profile, starting from your own profile, then click on your parent and so on.
