Hi Keith;
You are correct on the confusion.
The Help file states:
When Adding New Records
When records are deleted from a family file, it
leaves a "hole" in the sequential list of record numbers used by the
individuals and marriages. These most often occur as you merge duplicate
records together. You can have these abandoned numbers reused as you add
new records (or import them) by checking the Reuse abandoned RINs
option.
The reuse option is in Options > Customize
> Data Defaults
The above help file should be a bit clearer as
to the MRIN is or is not reused with the "Reuse RIN'
checked.
Support could clarify this.

Good question, Keith. It is not clear from the help pages but
I have always
assumed they are added at the end. There is a facility to
reuse them under
Tools>Renumber.
