    Complex relationships

    I have a complex situation and I don't know how to show it on Reunion.

    My GG Grandma raised two boys as her own twins, but they weren't. One of them was her husband's illegitimate son. The complicating factor is that the illegitimate son's mother, was my GG Grandmother's daughter from her first marriage.

    So basically her husband got his wife pregnant and his step-daughter pregnant and they were raised as twins.

    I have assigned the illegitimate son to his correct mother in Reunion, but I'm unsure about adding his father as I'm concerned it will mess other relationships up. His brothers (who share the same father) are also his uncles (because his mother is their half sister).

    Shall I just leave him without a father or can I connect them somehow? He appears on a Census first with his 'grandparents' who I believe are actually his Great grandparents, but then 10 years later he is living with his father and being raised as a sibling with the other kids.

    Crikey, this family make Jeremy Kyle stories look tame!

    Is there a way to show this in Reunion?

      Honestly, I rewrote it about three times to pair it down a bit so people didn't lose the will to live lol. The more I find out about this amazing woman though, the more I love her.

      I knew she was married three times, but I have the dates now.

      2 Jun 1881 - OMG! Less than a year before the next one! She was widowed both times.

      It was the final husband who I'm not so keen on. His step-daughter, aged 16!

      Enjoy the popcorn
