I don't know the last name of Margaret in my tree, so it is blank in my gedcom and she is represented as Margaret ? in my Geneanet tree. When I edit her tree data and press Submit, Geneanet does not allow the edit because "last name missing". Do I need to edit my gedcom and upload in order to make the change, or is there another method?

Dear Madam,

The name must contain some letters. We suggest that you change it to "Unknown", "XXX" or something like that.
Best wishes,

Thank you. I can see that having some text in a last name is useful.
