I have a couple that shows other spouses for him and her on the family page and when I check out the other spouse on him and her they show the same id numbers so, I know I am looking at only two people here not four how do I make it read right?? Strangely while looking over my notes I added a middle initial of H. for him and it appears on both of her hubbys???

FO will not let you enter more than one marriage for the same two people, so the situation you have must have come in via a gedcom import from some other genealogy program. I expect the only way you can fix this one is to unlink the spouses from each other and then relink them. As soon as you unlink one spouse, all four links and both families should disappear since they are the same two people. Be sure you make a note of the marriage event and all pertinent data before you unlink so you can reenter the data after you relink .... (including links to children). It's not surprising that the H. initial appeared for both instances since they both are the same person (not duplicates, actually the same person). Wayne League
