I am very new to family tree building. For three generations (including mine) one spouse has died young and the remaining partner has married again. I am using your family tree layout. How do I record the second marriages?


Thank you.

    Welcome to the Community. To add a second spouse follow the directions below:

    1. Sign in to FamilySearch, then click Family Tree.
    2. Navigate to the Person page of the individual whose spouse you want to add.
    3. If you do not see Vitals near the top of the page, click Details.
    4. Scroll down to the Family Members section.
    5. Under Spouses and Children, click Add Spouse.
    6. Enter information about the spouse, and click Next, which is available after you click Deceased. (If you know the ID of the spouse, click By ID Number.)
      • The Additional Find Option is an optional additional search format. You can search for the spouse with their parents, or, if applicable, previous spouses. This additional information can make it easier to find a match within Family Tree.
    7. If Family Tree found people who match your search, it lists them. Indicate whether you need to add a matching person or create a new one:
      • If the person is already in Family Tree, click Add Match.
      • If the person is not already in Family Tree, click Create Person.
      • To adjust your search, click Refine Search.

    Wishing you success in adding the additional information to your family line.
