Thank you for your comments.

I recently started correcting around 70 errors using the Problem Spotter and the cursor hover technique you suggested.   Consequently all of my problems have been solved except for the four described in my request for help.  Since the time of the request most of my problems have been solved as follows:

Situation 1 - The mother has two children and is part of the family line.  She divorced the biological father, then married and divorced a second time.

1.      The Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” was not true since both the mother and father appeared on the family tree as a divorced couple.

2.      In this case, the Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” was removed by detaching all marriage indicators from the family line between the mother’s first and second husband sand then re-attaching the mother’s marriage entries to the family line in chronological order.

Situation 2 - The mother is part of the family line andmarried to the father of their one child. The father is divorced from an original marriage that produced two children.

1.      The comment “mothers name is a single parent (one child)” is attached to the family line between the mother and father.

2.      The above comment was not true since the mother and father are married to each other.

3.      The Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” was not true since both the mother and father appeared on the family tree as a married couple.

4.      In this case, the Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” was removed by re-entering the father’s marriage data first and then entering his second marriage to the family line between mother and father of the father’s third child.

Situation 3 - The mother is part of the family line was married to the father of their two children. The father was killed in an automobile accident and the mother re-married twice for a total of three husbands that she out lived.

1.      The Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” was correct at that point.

2.      The comment “The third husbands name is a single parent”, attached to the family line was incorrect in that he was not single. 

3.      In this case, the Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” was removed by re-entering the mother’s marriage data first and then entering the second and third marriage data in sequential order.

Situation 4 - The mother is part of the family line and never married the father of their one child.      

1.      Removed all three members from the family tree. 

2.      Created new entries for the three members and attached to the family tree.

3.      Deleted all three of the original member entries.

4.      The comment “Elijah Merriman is a single parent (one child”) is now attached to the replacement family line between Elijah Merriman and Mary N. McCoy.

5.      The comment “Mary N.McCoy is a single parent (one child”) is also now attached to the family line between Elijah Merriman and Mary N. McCoy.

6.      Problem Spotter comment “The family has a single parent” remains on the problem list.

7.      Conclusion:  The problem may be with Problem Spotter.
