My relatives are not interested in genealogy, but I would like to leave my family tree for future generations. Will you delete my family tree after my death?

Peter,
When you share your family research here, it stops becoming "your" family tree and is contributed to a single family tree. Read more here:

As long as wikitree remains online, your contribution will, as well.

Why would you want to delete your legacy of work? I would think in part you are doing this in part for your descendants.
