Assuming you're excluding the people I think you're excluding (i.e., your uncle's first wife's first husband's grandparents, and his second wife's brother's wife's nephew?) ...

If a few people are missed, add them at the FOCUS GROUP screen with add-an-individual / add-a-family. I can pare a database of 4454 individuals down to 637 individuals that way. IF it doesn't work for you -- export everyone; create a new TEST database, and import everyone; now unlink or delete everyone you don't want, and export what's left. FWIW.
