What is included if you check "other spouses" for your descendant book report? If I have a person who married someone that had already been married twice before shouldn't this show up - not as a separate line item for the husbands but at least where it's showing in the note form who he married and her parents, birth & death information. It would be nice to also have the children from other marriages listed under this note section. I don't want a separate line item for either one of these options.
If this isn't included, will Legacy ever have this as a feature? If not, why is that an option for the book? I have thousands & thousands of people and hundreds who have multiple marriages so it isn't feasible to print out a family report for each one to show this information to family members or to go in and make the children stepchildren. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. thanks Kathy On Tue, Sep 24, 2013 at 11:27 PM, Ron Taylor <doit4...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Judy, > First, connect the children to the step parents in addition to the > biological parents then set the Relationship to Father and Relationship to > Mother as "Step" for that family.
