my biological aunt's brother in law is the father of my first cousin's husband so I have interconnected married in family members that I cannot seem to connect.

Is there a way to do this?

Best answer

I would do it this way:

  1. Create your aunt and her brother-in-law on you family's side of the tree
  2. create your husband's first cousin on his side of the tree
  3. from your husband's cousin, on the side panel under "Click to add relatives of _____" options, select the following options: "Change or Delete" > "Change Parents" > "Choose New Parents from Tree"
  4. Select your aunt's brother-in-law as his father 

This will create "duplicate" trees on both sides of your family. Does this make sense?
