Hello again Mike I sort of see what you are saying. I also use Ancestry and had the same result, they also wrote back and said having two shown lines is correct. I've attached a very simplified tree to show my problem. I wonder if you would be kind enough just to have a look at it and confirm that's as it should be. Very many thanks Bob

Looks correct to me, showing the link between cousins.

Yes, as Neil says, that is perfect.

Can't thank you enough. It just looks so odd when you see it for the first time! Very best Bob

As a matter of interest, what would you expect to see? Imagine trying to superimpose those married cousins on top of each other in the Diagram. There is only one sibling in your example, but imagine if both cousins had several younger and older siblings who were also married perhaps with children. Do you see what a complex mess it would be with many crossing lines?

Thanks again for your continued interest. I have been using Family Tree programmes for many years and currently have near 4000 people on my tree, many closely related. This is the first time I have seen this phenomena of of the duplicated offsprings. Everything is telling me this is correct but my dinosaur brain just finds it, well - odd! Anyway, I will find a quiet corner and work out why! Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to explain. Bob
