Russ,
The information for the spouse (the childless couple) *should* be listed in the generation with the parent. However, FTM appears to omit all non-vital information when the couple is childless. Missing information includes all notes and all non-vital facts.
This issue is easily recreated in a simple example with three people. Create a father named Jack Doe. Create a son John Doe. Create a spouse of John Doe named Jane Smith. Add notes and non-vital facts to Jane Smith. Run a descendant report for Jack Doe and Jane’s non-vital information will be omitted. Add a child for John and Jane, and Jane’s information will now show up in the Jack Doe descendant report.
Does anyone have a work-around to this issue?
I suppose I could create a fake child named “none” to force FTM to include the spouse information, but that seems like poor work-around.
Thanks,
David
