Do you mean you had a spouseless marriage in that you had female named person married to an unknown male - and you have now found the name of the male?
I think that it is because I am merging smaller trees into one big one ready to load up onto here and in some cases I have started with the female only, then on the other tree have the husband with her name so once the trees are merged she appears to have two marriages one of which is spouseless.
So in effect you have got one person recorded twice on the tree.
You need to merge duplicate individuals.
Go to PEOPLE, select Merge all Duplicate Individuals.
It will advise you to back up your tree before you start - make sure you do this just in case.
It will then give you a report of what it thinks are duplicate individuals and offers you the opportunity of merging them.
So the female is only there once - but her children are listed with her without a husband, and again with her and her husband - is that what you are saying.
Are the children duplicated? Check in the index of individuals.
I hate dealing with duplicate relationships when I can't see the file in front of me!
Please make sure you have a back up of your file before you start fiddling.
Have a look at this and see if you think it is going to answer your query - Answer
Basically what you have to do is make sure children are attached to the right parents.
Then find the spouseless relationship and detach the children from that relationship - and then detach the unknown spouse.
