This is a simplify vision of a problem I have in my tree.
How do I record B' marriage to both A & C and then how continue on B' line without doubling up on every one ?
Hope you can understand what I mean because Iv'e confused myself.

The tree on GR doesn't recognise this sort of thing but I bleieve you can do it on most family tree programmes on your own pc

After installing Family Tree Maker, I exported my tree from GR to my email which was fine apart from none of my notes transfered over

Thanks Claire,
it looks like I've got a lot of work to do then as this problem crops up twice and the first one lay undiscovered about halfway up my tree,so a lot of descendants to sort out.
The problem is i like the format of the GR tree,but if needs must.

Once you have bought tree program or even the free legacy one you can fix the problems and then re import it to GR
