Henry Brown married Mary Augusta Squire, they had Henry Brown jnr. Mary Augusta had a brother called James and he had a child called Mary Ann Squire. Henry Brown jnr married Mary Ann Squire. I can't seem to tie them together on the family tree. ie How do I make the daughter of James and the wife of Henry Brown jnr the same person? Thanks Sylvie

You can't enter cousins marrying without entering at least one of the names twice,once with the parents and once with the spouse. If you use an alternative family tree program you camn merge the two people into one but you can't on GR. Glen

Thank you Glen - you have saved me hours! It was because I could do it on my other programme that I tried! Do tinsel knickers tarnish? Sylvie
