Well yes - and no. I just tried it again. If you ask to add a spouse
and connect to the husband (wife) AND children by clicking YES in the
'Add Mother to this Family?' text box, then the '?Create a Marriage
Event for this Couple?' text box does NOT appear. If you click NO, then
the 'Create a Marriage Event for this Couple?' box appears. I guess the
assumption was that if there are children there must be a marriage event
since a marriage event is automatically added. boo-hiss.
