Kirsten,
I was able to duplicate this but only when I did the following:
1. I created an ancestor X
2. I added a marriage date and place but no spouse.
3. The Marriage wording tab of the marriage screen then used the default
setting "X married someone" for an unknown spouse.
4. I ran an ancestor report and the X married someone wording was used
with no name.
5. I closed the report
6. I added the missing spouse Y
7. When the marriage screen appeared I clicked the cancel button instead
of save since the date and place were OK. I did not examine the Wording
Tab. If I had looked at the wording tab I would have seen that the
wording was now "married".
8. Because I cancelled the change to the marriage information the
"married someone" wording was kept on the wording tab.
9. When I ran the ancestor report the wording was "X married someone Y".
10. After I edited the marriage and saved it without making any changes
to the date/place the marriage wording tab was changed to "married" and
the ancestor report wording became "X married Y".
Now for the 64$ question. Is that a BUG or user error?

As Ron responded, this was discussed on the list but not really resolved.
In my case, I had entered a woman's name and marriage date but no husband's
name. When I later found and entered his name it appeared in Descendant
Book Reports just like your "Julia married someone Nelson Taylor." It
appears that once the "someone" is triggered, entering a name later just
added it to the field but didn't override the "someone."
I don't know whether you've perhaps done the same thing, but I had to delete
the marriage date, location, and the husband's name and then add the husband
again *before* re-entering the marriage information. That cleared the
"someone."

Subject: [LegacyUG] Someone
Ancestor Book Report - Why is the word "someone" being inserted into
ever marriage - it makes no sense!?! "Julia married someone Nelson
Taylor". Looked for wording option but could not find anything there.
Any ideas? (Using latest update)
Thanks,
Keith
