Thanks Zurga - I get the same result as you ... now that I have figured out where to look ...
I am still finding my way around the UI

It is strange that Ancestris marks the dates as invalid - if I use the same gedcom with other softs, the dates are read OK
And the dates LOOK ok when viewing the gedcom in a text editor ...
I will try to find the origin of these invalid dates

Thanks for your help!

Yes, the dates all look OK - maybe there is an issue with date format?
The birth dates in the gedcom look like this (other data removed)

Hello
I hope this is not an "old question" ...

The problem is that in my current project, the Ancestris dynamic tree does not display children in the order of birth date.
The gedcom was created by getmyancestors.py which downloads data from the Family Search site.
The gedcom version is 5.5.I have checked the gedcom data - I can't see any obvious problems ...

Is there maybe some setting I can adjust?
Thanks
