Tech support said the problem had not been resolved so I didn't do anything more about it. But thanks, I will keep all suggestions and will need to do something before I print the report. Betty FL

My recollection is that it was caused by entering data in a certain sequence. In my case I believe I had entered a wife’s details and a marriage date before entering the husband’s name. Legacy automatically adds “someone” (which is invisible) and when the second spouse’s name is entered it doesn’t overwrite that but just adds it as “Mary married someone John Smith” or the reverse. I had to delete the couple and then re-enter both husband and wife before adding the marriage date in order to clear the “someone.” It’s been quite a while since this happened so my memory is fuzzy, but there was a long thread about it before the cause was discovered.

Betty, Check your marriage wording settings at Options>Customise>View>Edit Default Marriage Wording (button top right). Also Check the Individual Marriage Screen for the couple you will find the settings under the Wording Options Tab. BTW What Legacy version are you using, as I thought this problem had been eradicated – certainly not seen it crop up for ages?

One example is in a descendant's report, farther down than the beginning, I read 'William M Workman married someone Margaret Gargus.' Say what? Where did 'someone' come from, especially with a name there!
