One quirk I have found in puling down a GEDCOM for the Sexton line that the X-wife is left out of being the mother of her children and she does not show up at all as being a wife of the person she divorced - this creates a lot of problems when working with the file -

and if someone does not take the time to clean it up and passes it on this creates greater problems

An x-wife should be listed with her husband & children.

Do not know if there is any fix for this or that it is something a person will have to spend hours cleaning up manually

@Mike Stangel This is still happening - it is making it frustrating to merge two Sexton files -

This should not split families into having no mother/father if divorce both parents should stay as parents of the family -

I done a lot of online work on GENI with the Sexton's before tackling the Notebook again -

Having a very rough time merging the two families my off line files is being documented as I go and will have further documentation since this is occurring with GENI downloads - as I got to now prove the mother/father again into the families of the off line file.
