I am finding a lot of second marriages in the Victorian era, mainly due to early death of first spouse. Adding the new "partner" is a doddle - but I do not see a way to recognise where a person had two or more, when browsing through the records, other than the rather laborious clicking on the Partners button for each & every one. Could a "flag" be added in some way (maybe button name variation from "Partner" to 'Partners" on adding the second, say)?
Many thanks.
;D

I'm running into a tangential problem. This second marriage. I'm using this program to organize family relations from several characters (eventually several family trees, but this first tree I'm building has William (a father of 5 by 3 different women). Granted I've only put in his 3 wives and 3 of his 5 children it SHOULD show descendants as Lucinda, Victor and Williamson; unfortunately it only shows 1 descendant and that depends on which wife is showing up at that moment. Gow can I make all his children show up on one list of his descendants?

Gow can I make all his children show up on one list of his descendants? It appears that each of the three children is by a different wife. The family window for a given partner shows only the child(ren) by that wife. The family window is a data entry window. To see all the marriages and the children by those marriages in draft form, click on the draft button in the main window. The draft that is then shown is a draft of how the husband and all his partners and their children will appear in the reports you later generate. (For example, you generate an HTML Register report for the husband by choosing File menu > Write HTML > Register. You can also generate an HTML list of descendants by choosing File menu > Write HTML > Descendants of This Person.) I assume this was the nature of your question. If not, please clarify. Best regards, Howard
