I also have 1st cousins that married (and they had the same last name before
marriage too, just to add to the confusion people get.)

I don't think Legacy really does anything to point this out.... especially
when you aren't aware of it.  You would most likely find out about it by
looking for possible duplicates.


I know for an experiment I set the person to start ancestor colours to one
of this couple's children - and it did do the colours correctly (ie, when it
hit the duplicate line, the colours sort of merged - ie, the red colour was
used for both "lines" that were in fact the same line.   Kind of hard to
describe without a picture, but it made very clear the relationships.  That
said, that isn't who I would want the ancestor colour lines to start from,
so I changed it back.  It is far enough back that they are all the same
colour for this family.

The main thing I did was put in some notes.... 1st one that the girl's
maiden name was the same as her married name, and it was not a case of
entering it incorrectly on the chart/ in the program.  The other that yes,
the couple was 1st cousins.
