Multiple parents

[Mike Warren]

The Family View for my 3rd cousin Inger (everything here also applies to her brother Ugo) gives blank boxes for her parents, both of whom are in the familyfile. And the Tree View shows a single box for Inger. In both views, clicking on the down-arrow icon and selecting parents, shows two lines, one Unknown (checked) and one with both parents listed. Selecting the second line gives the correct result (i.e., Inger's parents boxes are now both filled). The same icon gave me the opportunity to remove the extra, Unknown family record, which I did for both siblings. Fixed!

Now I'm wondering if there are other individuals with two sets of parents and how can I find them. The Find panel has a preset for "With multiple parents" but I can't figure out how to make it work.

...I'm wondering if there are other individuals with two sets of parents and how can I find them. The Find panel has a preset for "With multiple parents" but I can't figure out how to make it work.

By default, the Find panel is configured like the attached image when the "With Multiple Parents" preset is selected.

As long as the Find panel is set up as shown in the attached image and you do have more people with multiple sets of parents, Reunion should find them when you click the "Find" button in the Find panel. If any can be found, they will be listed in the Results sidebar on the right.

I hope this information is helpful for you

Thanks! And thankfully there was just the one.
