I am a new FH user after many years with FTM.  My transfer went well but I have a query on property box.  One set of great grandparents (married to each other) both committed bigamy - one twice!   'Status' does not have this in the drop down menu.   Is it possible to add 'bigamously married' to the menu?

It's not currently an option,but I would be tempted to create a custom even/attribute for this and add it in, or simply add it into the note on the marriage.

Thanks Jane. I will study my 199p manual for that! Learning curves get steeper as you get older.

I have posted in Wish Lists Requests for this to be added.

I have a custom event for this but would be very glad to have it in the status field - seems to me this is more common than we might think ....
