I am using v4.1 discovered I had 2 Id's for one family,I merged the 2 for husband, then merged the 2 of his wife NOW I have 1 record showing they both had 2 spouse's showing 1 child from each marriage (it's correct they had 2 sons) but they only married once how can I correct this mess now?

You probably need to merge the two Family records, which you can do on the Families tab of the Records screen.

Peter I just tried what you suggest but it won't allow me as it keeps saying I must select 2 records (each has the same id number) so I can't select 2???[frown]

Please check you are on the Families Tab, you should then see two records for the couple.
