‘Data Problem’ & ‘Children Mismatch’.
Hello fellow researchers,
Greetings from Swansea, south-west Wales, UK
Could someone please explain to me what I am not seeing with the ‘Data Problem’ & ‘Children Mismatch’.
Regards, JohnG_Swansea

I suspect the answer is that you added the No Children flag by mistake. If you look on Latest Changes, Show All and scroll to 2 April 2020, you will find the culprit! From your comments at the time, I do not think you intended to do this. Anyway, the issue is easily resolved.
Click on the box to the right of the marriage
Go to Relationship Facts
Under No Children, click Edit and then click Delete in the bottom right hand corner. Add comments if you wish but, as you said at the time, the evidence is there for all to see! Click Delete Fact and the job is done!
It would have been quicker to do it myself than write this but it is more fun to do it yourself!

Thanks again Graham, another one discovered and resolved, the only thing is the more things I become aware of, the more things I now see which don't look quite right and when I look further I realise how easy it is to open the door on yet another 'Can of Worms', I have a suspicsion you might be hearing from me again!
Thank you again, Stay Safe, JohnG_Swansea.

I think it is safe to say that Family Tree is littered with cans of worms in all directions. Some of the messes that have been created will make your hair stand on end!!! With luck you may not find them on your ancestral lines but that is optimistic. Just in the last few days I discovered a new ancestor from Devon. I then found him on Family Tree to see that he had a very large number of children, some born in Devon and some in Yorkshire - not sequentially but mixed up. It took a fair bit of work to unravel them into two different families. Too many people seem to take the view that, if names and dates fit reasonably well, geography can be ignored. Then there are thankfully fewer people that think that, if names fit, dates and geography can be ignored.
But that is all part of the fun of family history research!
Feel free to keep the questions coming😀
Regards
Graham
