I have an instance where cousins marry. In each case, tracing the ancestors of husband and wife eventually leads to a common husband and wife pair - but this couple is shown twice in the tree view. Is there any way in which this can be avoided - or does the tree become too complex, please?

Re: Married cousins show duplicate ancestors
When you have one set of common ancestors, there is a straightforward algorithm that can reorder the branches so that the common branch can be connected. However, if there is more than one set of common ancestors, the algorithm becomes very complex and some trees are unsolvable.
