 has George Pettet 1757-1820 m 1913 Mary Oatridge.

How do I change that to 1813? This was his 2nd m.

How do I add his 1st m?

At http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kitwithers/pettet/pettet.html he is

44331 61 7-George PETTIT/PETTET bp 14.8.1757 St George, Deal d: Nov. 1820

Duke Street, Deal,Kent, bur: 4.12.1820, St Leonard,Deal,Kent. Mariner in 1783.

m1 8.4.1783 at Folkestone,Kent by licence sp-Gittens TREVILLION bp 22.11.1741

Folkestone, Kent, buried 28.3.1791 at Folkestone. Banns called at Ripple.

I dont see an edit button or a pencil to click on.

Regards

    Make sure you're on the Details tab, then scroll down to the Family Members section and click the pencil to the right of the marriage with the incorrect year.

    On the resulting Couple Relationship popup, again click the pencil to the right of the marriage.

    (Yeah, I know, it's rather annoying to have to do it twice. The Couple Relationship area needs a lot of help; I hope it's a work in progress.)

    did not show any pencils even when I scrolled down to the bottom.

    Click the little pencil icon (that means EDIT) next to the information and edit the date.
