I have this situation in my database. All I did was enter one of the brothers as an individual then click on the Father field in the Family Page. This presents the family page showing the first individual as a son with no parents. You can then simply add another son.
I would add an event against each (Census in my case) showing the details and source.

For me to get them linked as brothers I have to put in a father. James Doe and Jason Doe are brothers. I have to put just the surname Doe as a father so that they will show as brothers, does that make sense? The problem is, Mr. Doe is showing as a person with no sources at all. I am a little OCD about making sure everyone has sources Smile Smile Smile Is there anyway else to link the two brothers? michele Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
