@thejerrybryan --Sorry Jerry to be so slow..
And YES you are CORRECT-- it does NOT seem to work-- I had originally suggested it on this problem where a hubby and wife were married, divorced and remarried ..
It worked in this situation, so I THOUGHT it would work in all situations-- Apologize to all for not checking it out before hand BUT would like to know WHY it does NOT work—and why when you have a child attached to his birth parents and step parent that RM defaults to the 2nd marriage as the PRIMARY-- technically in the problem search it does say born before PARENT’S marriage NOT PARENTS marriage–so technically it is correct-- the child was born before his father/mother married a 2nd time…

I.Primary – Check this box if you have more than one of this fact type for a person, and want this one to be the primary one. For example, if you have 2 conflicting birth facts entered for a person, you can check this box for the one you want to be printed on pedigree charts, etc.
pedigree charts, etc is kind of vague --what I found so far was box charts fan charts etc–not narrative etc..
Guess my idea of what should happen when primary is checked is different than what does happen–Again Sorry for the mis-information…
