I'm new at genes reunited and just started building my family tree. Unfortnately i got stuck becouse:
I have two families f.e. family A and family B, and they are connected with two marriages.
Adding first marriage is easy using add partner (from family b) and then adding his relatives. Problem is with second marriage. I can still add partner but he is in two places in my tree now(as a partners relative added in first marriage).
Can somebody help me solve this problem.?

Hi,
The short answer is that you can't do it on GR - all you could do is to add a note to refer to the other line.
However, if you get a genealogy program for your personal use (FTM e.g.) you shold be able to merge duplicate people then upload to GR where it will be correct.
Make sense?
