Support for multiple interconnections of different branches?

[jslegers]

How's support for multiple interconnections between different branches? I'm looking for a flexible way to display the output of a GEDCOM ), which is the standard data model for geneology that supports multiple interconnections between different branches of an ancestor tree.

One example would be a case where two sisters of one family marry two brothers of another family. This is the case for a distant relative of mine, sometime in the 17th century, as you can see in the screenshots (of my family tree in MyHeritage.com) below.

From the brothers' perspective:

From the sisters' perspective:

A more complicated example would be when a greatgrandfather of a man is the mother-in-law of the grandmother of his wife (or her sister). Something like that too occurs among my 18th century ancestors, but it's a bit more difficult to provide a suitable screenshot.

Is there a way to make this kind of connections with your library without duplicating one or more persons or do you plan on supporting this feature in the future?

Thanks for the question. I just added a note at the bottom of the readme that discusses pedigree collapse.
