Jenny,
You might need to increase the number for blood relationships from the
default 5 to something a little larger. It's rarely necessary to go as
far as 20 unless you're into royal genealogies, let alone the possible 999.
Note the options for closest relationship or closest direct line
relationship if any - but I'm not sure how relevant this is to your issue.
I assume you've done a Check/Repair, checked that you don't have extra
links for these people and also Cleared Relationships before Re-setting?
If none of that helps, it would good to send the problem to Support. If
there is a problem in the Relationship tool, they'll need the file in
order to work it out and enter a bug report.

I have an instance where a man's second wife was the aunt of his
first, the two women being my 3rd Great Grandaunt and my 4th Great
Grandaunt. Regardless of which wife is selected as the Preferred one,
the husband always shows on Family View as "Husband of 3rd Great
Grandaunt +".
To complicate the issue further, the only child of the first marriage
married her cousin. The relationships to me of both this pairs are
1st Cousin 5x removed, Husband/Wife of 1st Cousin 5x removed and Not
related which are all correct and "1st Cousin 5x removed +" shows on
Family View.
The relationships to me of their daughter are 2nd Cousin 4x removed
and Not related and it is "2nd Cousin 4x removed" which shows on
Family View. I have now added this daughter's husband and their 3
children, who are my 3rd Cousins 3x removed, but even though I have
Set Relationships (to me) again, nothing shows on Family View and when
I Calculate Relationships to me they are showing as Not related.
Obviously, Legacy sees "3rd great grandaunt's husband's great
granddaughter" as taking precedence over "3rd Cousin 3x removed", but
blood relationships should always take precedence, surely?
Do I have to accept that these close relationships are just too much
for Legacy to cope with?
