RE: [LegacyUG] Half Siblings
I have two families with half siblings but only one shows as half siblings. Not sure why.

As I was writing my reply I had a nagging feeling there was something I was missing, but couldn’t work out what. The reason I don't actually use Step 1 is that it gives a false record at times. By that I mean it appears to show *ALL* children of a couple, when actually they aren't. Best explained by example. My first husband had 4 children to his first wife. Then we had a child of our own. Correctly, those 5 children show up under our marriage. However, I have since remarried, to a man who had two children with his first wife. Under our marriage I see my first husband's four children, my own daughter, and my second husband's two children. Now the first four children have nothing to do with my second husband, and I don't want them showing in our marriage. So, I choose NOT to Show half siblings, but in the cases where I want to see half siblings I add all children to their natural parents, and to the marriage of the natural parent with the step parent.

Terry, Given that you have the Show 1/2 Kids set, I would check the linkings for the not showing family.

RE: [LegacyUG] Half Siblings
True half-siblings (i.e. they share one parent) can be shown by checking Show Half siblings (click on the siblings icon below any individual – at the bottom of the box that appears there is a tick box for Show Half brothers and sisters). It will show for all families with half-siblings. To have step-children included you need to attach the children to the marriage of the natural parent and the step-parent (as well as their birth parents if you wish). You can also use the Child Status box (right click on each child as required and select Children’s settings) to designate step-child of father or step-child of mother. This will show up in the children’s list next to their name. You could also designate relationship to Father / Relationship to Mother in the same place.

RE: [LegacyUG] Half Siblings
Thanks, I have ticked the box to Show Half brothers and sisters. What I was wanting is a way to have a couples full list of children (full and half) appear in the family view without having to click on the siblings icon below an individual. So I can tell at a glance how many children they jointly had without having to go through each set of parents and link children manually.
