Hi Cathy,
I have this circumstance (more than once) in my files and did not recollect
a problem. However to check this I have revisited them to check it out and I
cannot reproduce the problem. I have a Joseph Hayes who married a Margaret
Pearson who already had a child, Martha Lydia Pilkington, daughter of
Richard Pilkington and Margaret ?. Martha Lydia had 3 chidren before she
married a William Ackers one of whom was Edward Hayes.
I thought I had classed the children concerned as adopted but in fact had
them as Step. So I amended the records and rechecked, again no problem with
the Descendant Narrative report. I also unlinked the children from their
parents and then relinked to see if this would make a difference - it did

appreciate that this will not show the problem but will enable you to see
better how the family fits together.
Btw I cannot remember if it was yourself or Carol who pointed out to me that
the Opera browser could not read my drop-down menus, however, I am pleased
to say that with their latest version (9 I think) they have corrected the
problem.

Hi Jan,
The only way to know for sure that something is a bug is to see whether
someone else can duplicate your problem.
You reported your problem here, I checked. Although you've had a lot of
answers saying what you may have wrong, I'm not sure how many have checked
and can't reproduce your problem confirming that you have got something
wrong. It would be helpful to have that feedback. If there wasn't a bug,
their suggestions on what to check are excellent.
As I said, I checked by entering your family and CAN reproduce the problem
in the Descendant Narrative report. Therefore it is a bug.
I've reported it.
If you think you've found a bug, submit it at
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/problems.asp
If the staff person checking these can reproduce it, it goes into the
system as a bug. If they can't, it goes to the beta testers - unless they
can see what you are doing wrong, in which case they'll get back to you.
Cathy
