Cary,

You are not doing anything wrong. Robert appears twice because he is linked twice. Once to the mother and his biological father and again to your cousin and Robert's mother. The two links are showing like that because you have show 1/2 kids turned on. Robert is both the adopted brother of your cousin's other children and a 1/2 brother through his mother.

I know I'm doing something wrong, but need help to see what.  My cousin's
second marriage was to a woman who had a son.  At the time of this
marriage, the cousin adopted his new wife's son, Robert.

Robert was originally linked to his birth parents, but I also linked him
to the cousin as adopted by the father, natural to the wife (his mother).


I use Legacy with 1/2 siblings showing.  When I look at the family view of
the cousin & current wife, Robert appears twice - once as a full child
adopted by the cousin, once as a half child.  At first I thought I had
entered him twice, but if I delete either the full or half Robert, they
BOTH disappear.  If I add a fact or event for either, it appears in both.

Somehow one person has become two, appearing twice in viewing and in
reports.  What am I doing wrong?
