Does anyone know if I can add a recently discovered first marriage to someone I already have married with a family, without loosing all the info for the second marriage. Thanks, Jane

yes as far as i am aware. you just click on the persons name, and then at the top of the info box it says add partner, and you put the new persons name in

I'm just a bit hesitant in case that deletes the second marriage, and children, descendents etc.

i just added a partner for me and it came up with my husbands name still but with just an additional line. you can always delete it if it does go wrong. try it with someone you know really well and if it does delete it you know all the info
