if I understand correctly , you need to add them twice , I have two sisters who marry two brothers from a different family, the only way on here is to add them both twice once to their tree and once, a as spouse otherwise, there is no way of linking them together. I add them once and put notes to save confusion. Apparently gc/gr are working on this problem and will let us know when it is solved.... Kim

Hi - I'm probably being really thick, but here goes! I have a marriage of first cousins in my tree, i.e. the marriage partners' mothers were sisters. I've added each sister's details and now want to add THEIR parents. How can I add one set of parents and 'link' them to each sister? Most grateful for any help!
