    1. [FO] marriage event question
    2. John Chapman

    3. This is not a Family Origins problem, but a request for a solution to a "minor" problem I have with a marriage event. Our son eloped last year and of course we entered the data of his civil marriage, which is the actual date of his marriage. However, he and his wife have now had religious ceremony. Can anyone suggest how to handle this in FO 10? I doesn't seem logical, to me anyway, to list two "marriage" events. Or is it? with a note that the 2nd event was the religious ceremony. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks -- John Chapman "THESE are the times that try men's souls.." Thomas Paine 1776 Home Page http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~johnjay/

    3. There is no correct answer, but let me ask you a question. How many divorces would it take to dissolve the marriage? I suspect only one since the second marriage was only a cermony and probably did not have the legal paperwork. Regardless of how you record it, for clarification and completeness, use the marriage notes to add this supplemental information.
