connecting siblings to parents

Recommended Posts

I've recently found that an ancestor married his wife's sister after his wife died. I've already entered both of these women into my data, but now want to both connect them as siblings AND give them the same parents, whom I've just identified. I've been successful adding the parents for one of the women, but when I go to add a daughter to this couple by entereing the ID number of the remaining sister, I get a message stating the ID number I've chosen is already in use. Any ideas?

Cavan,

 

With the sibling to which you want to add parents displayed, double click on "Father" (just under her name). Then add the father's ID number in the default block. Click OK, and then do the same for her "Mother". Should be all set.
