How to remove devices in Text Message Forwarding

On my iPhone in Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding, I have a growing number of devices that have been retired that have the same name as the device that replaced it or else were reformatted. One device name now appears 4 times! Previous suggestions have been to wipe the iPhone (ugh!), or to go to https://appleid.apple.com/account/manage and remove the devices BUT these devices do not show there. Is there any other method to get these out of the iPhone?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 11.4.1

Hello, Paul Kleeberg.

It's my understanding that you want to remove devices from your Text Message Forwarding. I have a suggestion that may help you. Resetting your Apple ID password will remove these devices from the forwarding list.

I hope this helps.

Cheers!
