Not to harp on the other issue in this summary. As we've looked back in my wife's Norwegian relatives, even very far back, it was extremely common for a man to get married, have a few children, have his wife die in childbirth, get married again, have more children, have his second wife die in childbirth, get married again, and have even more children. You had to have a wife to run the household and take care of the kids. Usually each subsequent wife would be younger and younger than the husband because all the women his age were either married or dead. This man remarrying at age 48 to a 33 year old wife was not at all unusual and, of course, if you got married, you had more children.
Also, the large number of children was not unusual when so many of the wives and children died and they had to keep getting more.

It's not just in Norway, Gordon. My maternal family is from the rural southern USA, dating back to before it was the USA. This is from my 3rd GGF's summary. Jonathan was married 3 times, had 14 children who lived to adulthood (1, 6, and 7, respectively, from the 3 marriages), and died at 65.

This type of situation I would rather see handled by changing the underlying criteria rather than making the flags dismissible. It would take a fair amount of otherwise productive time to go into each summary and dismiss multiple flags.
If there is some statistical analysis that is being used to set the cut offs, maybe the 99.5 percentile line needs to be used rather than the 95th or whatever percentile is being used.

I decided to take a look at an ancestor who lived a long time, had many children, lost his first wife, remarried, had 2 more children, and then died in 1810 when those 2 children were 2 and 1 years old.
Not only are those last 2 children (born when Jeremiah was in his late 60s) shown, but many of his children with his first wife are listed as being born when he was very old.
Just for fun, Jeremiah is both my 4th and my 6th GGF, as I descend from both the eldest son and the youngest son, on 2 different lines.

One improvement we have made is no longer reporting that males fathered a child too old. Also, for women we are increasing the maternal age threshold from 40 to 45.
