Have you put the date of death of the first husband? Not sure that it should make any difference but would be worth checking.

One of my ancestors was widowed by the early death of her husband less than a year after the birth of their first child. She re married, and went on to have four children to her second husband.
When I try to enter this information into my tree on GR, the lady appears twice ( with a number ,usually 1 or 2 in brackets) once for each husband. The children are shown with the correct father, but if I click on either the second husband, or the lady in question, I get an error message, and any further access to the tree is prevented. The error message then appears on every member of the tree.
I have tried pretending she was divorced, but it didn't help.
I tried re entering the details in every different order I can, with no luck.
Any suggestions please?
