Diane, These are the kinds of errors you see when you import a gedcom or directly download a chunk of tree from FamilySearch. You are inheriting other people’s mistakes.
I would print the Check/Repair error log and just go down the list one at a time. These problems need to be fixed first. Once you can run a Check/Repair with no errors you can work on the Potential Problems list of possible problems.

I have a 8 page list errors with as an example a woman b 1941 married to a man born in 1886 in Sweden and the marriage is 50 years before either were born. Earlier I had an error 380 and could not print a descendant report. We followed the directions to correct it, but still not corrected. Now the problem has expanded. Results of Error Log 19 marriage records where husband is in the female position and not to the correct wife. 17 marriage records where the wife is not female. 5 individuals never married but they are married 69 individuals that reference a preferred marriage record that has been removed 13 male individuals with a different husband 12 females with a different wife. Resetting of MRIN numbers Direction please on how to repair and how to avaoid this happening again.
