I am sorry if I came across wrong. Since in my family I have one 3rd cousin,
that is also my 7th cousin (no siblings), and he married my 5th cousin on a
different line. And other examples. Also, my adopted children are descended
from Charlemange 47 different paths and counting. I just never have

Experimenting, the 'illi' names only show yellow with Arial (screen)
font set to 'automatic' or 8 point. If I change the font to, say, Times
New Roman, the yellow vanishes.
Bizarre! I think its something recent - I'm sure I'd have noticed it
earlier.

Hi!
The letters 'illi' in names such as William, Gillian, are coloured
yellow in Legacy (research tab)
I've only just noticed this and think it has occurred very recently.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Is it a technical issue with legacy or a weirdo on my pc?
Many thanks

Well, I am so pleased to have finished the project, that I just had to share

Let me put a little humor on this -

Jerry,
I would recommend that you continue making a note of cousin marriages, although
some didn't see the point of your question, I definitely do. I suspected that
one of my ancestors in particular had married first cousins, and it took me ten
(10) long years of research before I was able to p
In response to Jerry, at times I do add such notes because I am a family
reunion historian where there are MANY marriages to cousins due to living in
a geographically isolated area. People in the family are always asking me to
give them the exact relationship, and I have even presented charts & giv
Sorry for the way I worded the question. There are STANDARD MARRIAGE
EVENTS and there are CUSTOM MARRIAGE EVENTS and I was asking if anyone
makes a custom marriage event to indicate the relationship. I see that
you do not, so that answers my question. I was not creating a custom
event either,
There are so many cousin marriages in my families - and then their children
might marry a descendant of the same ancestor - I have to instruct the
program not to reproduce the lines repeatedly. I never thought of it as
cause for a special note. It is interesting that they noted it.

I understand that I didn't word the question well to begin with, but I
already apologized before the person sent the "grumpy" note. But
perhaps she did not see my apology. Thanks!

I don't know why you would treat it any differently. I know why I
would. Our 522-page genealogy book happens to mention it whenever it
occurs, even though it was common in the 1800s, more so than today. So,
since they mention it, I think I'll continue to put my simple note in
the standard marria

I don't write an added note only because you can readily see that the two
are related when you look at their parents. I guess if I did a report that
I was going to give to someone else I would make a little note stating how
the two were related.

Some people on the list are way too jumpy. The question has nothing to do with
legalities or ethics. What I intended to ask is if anyone creates a simple
note as part of a custom event, such as "married second cousin." Right now, I
do include a very short note, but I use the standard marriage
