Never enter a person more than once. Use Attach to link two people already in your file.
FTM 2008 and later are not very good at showing all the relationships between two people. Older versions were much belter at doing this. When I was using FTM 16 my mother’s cousin and her husband were cousins 4 different ways. I can no longer show all these relationships.
It does not matter when you enter the marriage of John and Mary.
To show these relationships you have to include every ancestor from you and from Mary to your common ancestors. You have to do the same from you and John. You also need to include all of Mary’s and John’s ancestors back to their common ancestors.
