Enter them twice but put an entry in the notes to reflect the fact that she married her cousin.

If you have software offline you could create a GEDCOM and upload it which will put her in the correct place

I'm afraid you can't do it on your GR tree. Easy to do on other family tree programs like Familytree Maker.

Hello, I'm not sure which is the correct board for this but........... Say one person appears on a tree twice, because she is somebody's daughter but then say marries a cousin who is elsewhere on the tree...how do I connect them as the same person?

Thanks for any help in anticipation!
