How do I view divorce information in Family Tree?

In Family Tree, divorce information is displayed on a couple's relationship with the marriage events. Below are key aspects to understand:

• Divorces only show on the Person page if it is the only marriage event.
• If there is a marriage date and a divorce date for a couple, then only the marriage date shows on the person page.
• If a marriage exists, regardless of its order of entry, it will appear on the person’s page. To view or edit the divorce details, click the edit (pencil) icon.

Family Tree displays marriage events in chronological order. If the events are out of order, add or correct the dates as needed.
