Wm I have used this designation [this person never married] as a way to mark those that need no further research for spouse/descendants. A marker shows on the family view with this checked that I find helpful. I agree that the wording is inelegant. I would rather it say "this person had no spouse or children". However, it is a useful ticker, and maybe someday we can change the wording so it is more accurate. Joan b
