On my own tree I add all women using their maiden surname. Using surnames is a more accurate picture of your tree and marriage surname is associated with that of her partner through graphs and reports. Judy

When you add someone to your tree that's been previously married, do you add them by their married name or their maiden name? Any ideas. Tracey
