Also, if there are multiple spouses, on the Descendant Options screen, be sure it is selected for All Spouses or at least the correct spouse.

[LegacyUG] How can I show which individuals I think are correct
My legal birth certificate given name is J.M., Two capital letters, Two periods, no spaces. For years, most software prevented entering that. Worst was my application to the University of Michigan, instructions said to use (only) after each initial on the application form for a name with initials only, so I was listed as Jonly Monly. Also started most grade and high school classes with an arguement with my teachers! What is your real name? Not the best way to start a new relationship. Many more stories! I usually use the Birth Certificate name as the primary name for most people in my data, then enter the alternate names, which allows me to find them in my data with those names also. Jay Ingalls == On 8/9/2014 2:40 PM, David Abernathy wrote: What you are saying is that this person have a LOT of Nick names or are they all on his birth certificate?
