I do not understand this problem at all -- but then numbers give me
fits. I can see what is happening, I just do not understand *why* it
is happening.

So what I see is --
John Morgan Boyd married:
1. Sarah 2 Jan 1856 # F44
2. Talitha 27 Nov 1870 # F42
3. Mary 12 Feb 1884 # F45
4. Frances 12 Dec 1886 # F43
TMG is not putting the ladies in order. As the Rootsweb support
stated: "Family F3 comes before family F4, regardless of the
associated dates, and that is how WorldConnect displays them. I'd
suggest you check with TMG's technical support."
I certainly do not know how I can control how TMG takes the dates
given and applies that to the marriage number.
