One does not always know whether or not someone is still alive. An 'Unknown' option would be better than marking a live person as deceased.
Show it in tree view as a gray bar (instead of black) with a '?' in it.
It would also prod others looking at the tree to fill in the missing information.
Thanks.
I totally agree with this request. I've been adding quite a few profiles lately where It's quite possible that the people could be deceased but without any proof I had to mark the profile as living which makes them private and the possibility of someone else creating a duplicate profile is therefor increased.
I agree! I have a family tree that's very old. The last time it was updated was 2001 - 2008 I've figured out. It belonged to my great grandfather (who died many years before I was born), then my great Aunt (who died last year). There are many people born prior to 1935 that are marked as living, and are most likely deceased but I'd feel bad marking them as dead (just in case they are alive). They are too far away from my main family so I can't ask them. I don't know what to do, I wish this existed.
