Duel Marriage's for the life of our children.

Michael Marshall said: In the (Add) section of the profile of a person there is no where to place things such as Marriage, this would be important as a person may have been married more than once and so children could have been born with different parent/s.

I for one have been married twice and I have no space to put in a marriage on my profile, if my ancestors are in the same situation through death etc why can we not show this.

Paul said: Perhaps I am not understanding your point, Michael, but go into Family Tree and have a look at the page at https://www.familysearch.org/tree/per....

Here, I have added the three wives of John Greengrass. Beneath each relationship there is an "Add child" option, so you can add children against each of the wives who mothered his children. If you are not sure of the mother of a particular child, go to the bottom of the page, where there is the facility to "Add Child with an Unknown Mother".

Please explain further if I have misunderstood the problem, or you still require further advice.

Paul said: Sorry, I meant to mention. Whilst on the "Person" page you should select the option, "Add Spouse" in the section headed "Family Members". If he has no spouse shown on the record you are dealing with, you can click on the "Add Spouse" link immediately under his name. Either way, you can create a spouse, then go back and enter their marriage details by clicking on the pencil symbol to the right of "No Marriage Events".

Once they are shown as a couple, you can then add their children.

I do not have the link to hand that will lead you to a Family Tree guide. Hopefully, someone will read these comments and offer further advice and/or show how to reach the guide.
