Hello Greg,

it would help to understand your problem if you gave us some example. Multiple 
trill spans can be achieved by using multiple Voices:

<<
  { c''1\startTrillSpan 1 1\stopTrillSpan }
  \\
  { c'1\startTrillSpan 1 1\stopTrillSpan }
>>

If you need the notes to be within the same voice you can add a helper voice 
to place the trill spans:

\new Staff <<
  { <c' e' f'>1 1 1 }
  \new Voice { \voiceOne s1\startTrillSpan s s\stopTrillSpan }
  \new Voice { \voiceTwo s1\startTrillSpan s s\stopTrillSpan }
>>

Cheers,
Valentin
