Yes, regardless of surety level. I admit I haven't thought out everything,
just found I was having a need for this and thought it would be a good
feature. <G>
I guess I see a marriage as a historical fact and wanting to know how long
these people had been married would help me with the evidence.

Regardless of source or surety level, etc.?

What, if anything, would count as the end of a marriage? A
divorce-group event with the same principals, regardless of source or
surety? The death of the spouse, regardless of source or
surety? Anything else?

Doesn't the proposal encourages people to look at the data as
historical fact, rather than evidence?
