Cheri, especially with the marriage seems this not to work.
It appers always at last under the wife. I want the line of
marriage over the name of the wife and in the case of more
marriages, to be right beside the number of marriage. I feel
not comfortable with the marriage date under the events of
the wife(s), because this looks like "when she has married",
but in order that the husband is the "leader at the top of
the chartbox" it should look like when "he has married" and
be under his events. Under the events of a wife should be
just a marriage where she has married another man (maybe
after she get widowed).

Have you any idea to fix this ? Frank
