Today is my first time working with entering family data. So far I've entered 138 people into my family twig. I've run into a problem with my grandfather and his brother marrying sisters. Duplicate people are created when trying to connect the spouses. Can you give me any advice on how to handle this situation?

Duplicate people are created when trying to connect the spouses. Can you give me any advice on how to handle this situation? You should have entered your grandfather and granduncle as children of your great grandparents. You should have entered the sisters as children of their parents. Then you go to your grandfather, click on the Add Partner button, click once on the Unknown woman entry to select it, press command-F and select the appropriate sister as his spouse. Ditto for your granduncle with the other sister. No duplicates are generated, just everyone connected correctly. Best regards, Howard
