I understand that the IGI has recently been enhanced.

To quote from the news page at http://www.familysearch.org
"Where possible, records in the International Genealogical Index are now
lineage-linked. This allows a user to access and even download a pedigree
or family group record from an individual's record. Multiple events, if
known, will be displayed in the individual record. Also, the International
Genealogical Index will be updated more often."

This may be part of the answer to Elaine's question:

> An ancester of mine George SALMON's marriage appears on the IGI pages
> showing the name of his wife Elizabeth SHELTON, date of marriage 1727
> and place of marriage Tettenhall.
>
> Below this entry there is another entry for George SALMON showing date
> of marriage as 1727 place of marriage Tettenhall, then there is a
> "squiggle" next to the name with the entry "Relative of Thomas HOWARD".

> Can you tell me what this indicates. Has someone already traced my

> hundred or so traced) with the surname HOWARD.
