[LegacyUG] Showing Half Children
LUGgers: I am doing something wrong but I cannot figure out what. I have added two additional wives to a collateral ancestor. He had two children by his first wife and his third wife had three children by her first marriage. If I have the father and his first wife, only their two children show. When the father and his second wife show in the Family View, only his two children by the first wife show as 1/2 children. When the father and his third wife show in the Family view, all five children show as 1/2 children. Why don't all five children show with each wife with the 1/2 as needed? I am using LFT v8.0.0.427; would going to .439 help, do I need to do something else or do I need to do both? Thanks in advance.

Re: [LegacyUG] Showing Half Children
You are not doing anything wrong, 1/2 children show only when they are linked to one of the two people who are spouses in the current family view. Only 2 children show with the first wife because they are the only children linked to that couple (children of wives 2 and 3 are not 1/2 kids here). When the second wife is selected only the two children linked to him show (from this I assume he and the second wife had no children together and she has no children from another marriage). They show as 1/2 kids because the second wife is not their parent. The 5 children show with the third spouse because three children are linked to the third spouse and two are linked to him.

Brian: Thank you for explaining that. Now if I want the third wife's children to show on a descendancy chart of the husband, I have to link him to the children, right.

That is right, once they are linked to him you can set the parent child relationship to reflect the state of that link, adopted, step etc. so reports can include that relationship where that is allowed.
