I have entered a Mantis Issue on this anomaly. I also noticed that children's deaths are not included in the timeline, even if they died during the lifetime of the parent so I included that in the report. Chronology Tab does use the Bapt/chr date in lieu of birth dates to sort children but doesn't use burial as an in lieu date for death.
