Are TMG 6 charts limited to one tag from the birth group?

A different genealogy program can display multiples of (conflicting) birth
and baptism dates/locations for the same individual in a wall chart.
Multiples of birth sentences are confusing if a web site owner or book
author does not indicate the most likely birth date of several.

Dates of birth for some individuals had to be estimated for the correct
order of birth based on an early census rather than using the wrong birth
dates reported in 1901 census. Sometimes age at the time of marriage was not
correct and women claimed to be younger than their husbands.
