Unmarried mothers

  • A great plugin, thank you! But with my tree, the plugin seems unusable…
    My gedcoms display correctly across many platforms but does not import correctly to Roots persona.

    With my tree I have many un-married mothers and children whose fathers are unknown / unrecorded. Also, un-married mothers with more than one unknown father to their children.

    Rootspersona seems not to be able to translate my data – the unmarried mother is shown to have married herself!

    Gedcoms have been generated from PAF5. Mother and unknown father have been linked via a marriage MRIN. Marriage date entered as “not married”. Father given an individual record and name entered as “unknown.

    As I have said, my gedcoms display correctly when exported elsewhere, eg Ancestry, Gedmill

    Thanks

    Can you send me a copy of the gedcom? ed @ evidentiasoftware . com

    I think I got it sorted. My master PAF files used the default “unknown” i.e. one unknown for all unnamed fathers. Things helped when I created individual unknowns i.e. each unknown father has an individual record named “unknown”.

    Alas, your programme wasn’t for me – I managed to integrate existing Gedmill onto new wordpress instalation. Have just sent a gedmill in case it could be of us to you.

    All the best
