Gary,
I suspect that you have not marked one of the marriages as
primary. Do you see an asterisk to the left of each marriage tag in the
Person View? The marriage tag might seem to violate the concept of "one
primary event per tag" but, in fact, you can have any number of primary
marriages as long as the same 2 principals are not involved. Thus for
marriages, the primary marker is used to designate which marriage to
display on charts for those folks who married, divorced and remarried.
Does this resolve your problem?
