Thank you all for your tips. I'm glad I'm not the only one that has come across this. I think I will just leave the sisters as "wives" rather than inserting their families three times and will just add notes. |

I have brothers marrying sisters and can definately say they don't import correctly into GR via gedcom from FTM. |

I have the same problem in my tree, children of those families then went on to marry each other as well! |

GR uses a simlilar format to FTM for displaying trees, it's doesn't matter what program you use to join the marriages off GR when you import the gecom it will still not show up correctly on the GR tree. |

At present there is no way of connecting the two families. I have the same problem with first cousins marrying. |

I have come across 3 brothers marrying 3 sisters in my family tree, but have unfortunately found that there is no way of connecting them on here. |
