Merge Families
If you decide to proceed with merging, choose the appropriate {{man button|Select}} radio button(s) to specify the source(s) of the primary data to be used for the merged family record, and then click {{man button|OK}} . The children from both marriages are merged into the new family. The two fathers are merged together and the events from the secondary father are attached to the primary father. The names from the secondary father become alternate names for the primary father. The same occurs to the two mothers. The events related to the secondary family (e.g. marriage and any divorce) are transferred to the primary family. The secondary family, and the person record for the secondary father and mother are deleted from the database.
