How do I correctly enter two brothers from one family who married two sisters from another?

Question

When I input the "spouse from another entry on the tree" the tree shows one sister with two entries for her husband as if she married twice, which is not correct. The other sister and husband couple appear normally. What did I do wrong?

Answer 1

I've managed to do this. I did have to try a few times, deleting the brothers and sisters and starting from scratch when it looked wrong, but I think if you create the brothers and sisters first, then partner them up correctly, it should work. I did find I had to add parents for both sets (including one unamed set that I don't know).

Answer 2

Thank you for your answer - I immediately set to work trying out your suggestion. But when I tried getting to the sibling level without spouses for the two couples involved, the marriages couldn't be completely undone since this would break the connection of that branch of the tree entirely. So far what I have is either no spouse for one of the siblings on the paternal line of the trees, or two spouses for that couple (with one as an ex) on the maternal line of the trees. I already had many offspring and generations below this before I started, so maybe that is a factor.  Will keep fiddling with it though. Thanks again.
