Hi Everyone,

I'm just wondering if anyone else is using the free software downloaded from the LDS site for their family tree.

I have an issue where 2 people in my tree remarried after their spouses died and then went on the remarry and have more children. I can't figure out how to add the second marriage so I can then add the children associated with that marriage.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Gai, Have you tried the following. Go to the LDS web site and open it. On the bluegray task bar is the Help option if you click on that you will see "product support".

Click on product support and then on your version of the PAF. Then put a search using the words second marriage and add children or remarriage etc and it will bring up some options.

Hope this helps.

Here is the link. It might not work but try it

And there is also a PAF user group. The groups are set up in different areas around the world. Might be some info from that source.

Hi Aunty Sherlock,

thanks for the replies and I'll let you know how I get on. I have come to far with the tree to ditch it and start again.

You help is greatly appreciated.
