Thanks everyone for your interesting replies........how I wish the instigators of these mix-ups could see the quandry they have left many in.This in itself poses a serious question....how many adoptees could be married to half siblings and be totally unaware of it? |

My sibling has a similar confusion she has 3 children who are all half brothers and sisters. The eldest has 2 other half brothers and 3 step siblings plus a full sibling who was adopted. The middle child has 2 half siblings who themselves are only half siblings and the youngest has 1 half sibling. I pity any of them trying to sort out their tree let on the living let alone the non living ! |

I had a similar problem. 'daisy' married into my family tree and had 5 children. Daisy's husband died young and after a couple of years Daisy remarried and had three sons. |
