Yes, if using FH V4 ensure that the Sex of both partners is the same. Then either use the 'Marriage' Event to represent Civil Partnership or create your own Custom 'Civil Partnership' Event. I am not clear how selecting *unmarried couple* provides a workaround.

My only workaround is to select *unmarried couple *in the property box. I looked at the wish list and was surprised that a wish list item - *support for single sex / gender relationships *first posted in 2006 was last voted on in 2009. Surely I am not alone in being puzzled over why we cannot accurately record same sex relationships. Is the problem that the gedcom [Church of LDS] still does not recognise such relationships? * * *James* James Pam 23 Hilton Road Mapperley Nottingham NG3 6AN Tel Number: 0115 9522653 Mobile No: 07810721447
