Do I have to enter all the anscestors twice or there another way around this? Hope someone can help. Thanks Sam (on Martins PC)

We eventually added the female cousin as spouse to the male cousin - as they carried on the name - but also entered the lady concerned as a daughter to her mother with a note saying 'same person as married to etc'. Very confusing. Hopefully GC will find some way around this! K.
