Q: uninstall migration

I'm a new Mac user.  I migrated data from my husband's PC to my new Macbook Air.  I only wanted the photos and a few documents and had planned to delete the files I did not want.  However, now my macbook air thinks I am my husband and has imported all of his settings, email, etc.  I would like to reverse the migration action and start over fresh.  How do I start fresh?

    Who is the Adminstrator of the System User Account? If you are listed as the Administrator, then just delete your husband's account. Afterward you can delete his email and documents.

     

    Otherwise you can reinstall Mavericks again and erase your computer, and try migrating again without the settings,
