Not necessarily duplicates, but comparing individuals by birth date

but enough other info to defintely place him in the correct family.

Because of various spellings of a surname or variations of a given

If you are undecided as to whether to lump or split sources, I suggest
splitting them. If you change your mind later, it is fairly easy to
combine split sources into one, but difficult to separate lumped
sources.

I don't understand how or why to use the Source Type. If I have a

So what is the verdict? Is it a bug or not?
Seems to me that even if my uncle is calculated as the husband of my

be calculated as his nephew as well as my aunt's nephew or at least as
the nephew of my aunt's husband.
My wife's
Legacy correctly calculates the relationship between me and my uncle
as "husband of aunt", but when the names are swapped, it says there is
no relationship. I notice this with similar relationships. Do we

Darlene,
I have not been following this thread but I recall this problem being

The problem seems to lie in the way the browser uses the information from
the "add-ons". Ancestry's image viewer, etc.
This issue is easily fixed in IE
