Thank you very much, I followed your instructions and it worked!!!

I have successfully transferred the blog from one admin to another.

I got a confirmation/acceptance email

When I logged in I was able to remove the other admin

Thanks also to @justjennifer and @auxclass

!!! RESOLVED !!!

Auxclass is on the money. The other administrator can transfer the blog ownership to you from their account in the dashboard by going to Dashboard -> My Blogs, moving the cursor over the blog address, then clicking the Transfer Blog.

Alternatively, since you're also an administrator, you can delete the other administrator by going to Users -> All Users in the blog dashboard, moving the cursor over your username, then clicking Remove.

I created a blog for a local group http://rainhillwi.wordpress.com/

But then I noticed I had accidentally created the blog as the wrong user,

So then I added myself to the blog a second time as another administrator with the intention of removing the first admin user. However I don't seem to be able to do so?!?

A Google search brought me to the following support forum article:

http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-do-i-remove-myself-as-administrator-from-a-blog?replies=7

Which said to contact support directly.

Which I tried to so but when I clicked the link and it forced me down the path of creating another article for the forum!!!!

Anyway, can anyone please help me? Thanks in advance.
