I, like many others I am sure, occasionally get a second wife/husband for a person. However when I try to add them to my tree on here they become attached to the first partner instead of the person they married. How do I overcome this ?

Shirley I have tried that but the second husband becomes attached to the first instead of the wife. ie if Mary marries George and then later Fred, when i add Fred he links to George instead of Mary !
