Peter van de Rijt

6 April 1805 – 17 July 1884

 • G829-VTX

I have several records like this where the record is marked as

• This source has not been attached to all people found in the record.
• Learn More
• Unfinished Attachments • Dismiss
• 
  

All pertinent information is attached. What is not attached are the two witnesses. How do I get over this problem with my records?

thanks

We viewed the record for Peter Van De Rijt in Family Tree and could see there are two sources that are labeled with Unfinished Attachments. Below is an article from the Help Center regarding how to handle Unfinished Attachments.

We believe this will help you solve your problem. If not, please let us know.

Best Wishes!

The issue is not that the record is unfinished--the issue is that it can't be finished. There is no slot for witnesses of baptisms and yet the program states that the record is unfinished. The program either needs to provide fields for witnesses or not require it to finish the record.
