How do I swap marriage partners? There are two brothers and I attached the wrong wives to them. I need to swap the wives (and their parents) to their correct husbands.

    You have to delete the wife and add them to the correct husband

    @DellaJones3, I think you mean Remove the incorrect relationship rather than "delete the wife" @StorkJeffreyDuane2 , You click the little pencil icon in the marriage relationship box on the person/detail page, then click "Remove or Replace", you should then see towards the bottom a box (I have reviewed the relationships...) click that and two blue buttons should pop up. "Remove Person" (meaning remove the relationship) and "Replace Person". You can either remove the incorrect wife and then Add the correct one manually as before or you can Replace the incorrect wife with the correct wife, just enter the correct wife's PID the By ID Number area. Do this for each of the brothers.
