ENGLISH / GEDCOM Specification

« on: April 25, 2018, 06:13:15 »

Have been reading the development history of gedcom. Am a bit confused! Ancestris complies with the gedcom specification - but which one? Gedcom 5.5 is about 20 years old, with 5.5.1 more recent,  possibly used by some although I read that it has not been approved.

Which version  does Ancestris consider as the standard?

ENGLISH / Multiple spouses

« on: April 21, 2018, 00:58:16 »

Greetings to all.  Am a very new user running Version .10 beta on MX-Linux.  Previously using Gramps and only a few problems (fixable) in transferring data to Ancentris.  One query is how to best display persons with multiple spouses.  For example:  A Victorian family where a husband has married again after the early death of his first wife.  The children of both relationships were brought up as a single family.  Been trying, without success as yet,  to show both wives on a single family tree - is this possible ?
