Hi,

One of my female relatives had 2 children by her first husband, and none by her second. I now find that the two children are illustrated as coming from the two men. I tried deleting and reentering the first husband to change the input order, but this made no difference. How should I enter such child data?

I think you've done it the right way, Paul - it's just the way the tree on here shows it. If you click on the first husband, rather than the wife, it should show you their family group with the two children, but then if you click the wife and then click her second husband, their family group should come up with no children.

I see what you mean. Thanks.
