**If the BIOGRAPH_MASTER table has an ID Number in the SPOUSE_ID column or if a configurable relationship code exists in the RELATION_TABLE, the wedding ring ( ) icon is displayed. You can click the wedding ring icon to view spouse information on the Spouse Information window.

 

If the name displayed in the Name column of the result set does not match the name of the person for whom you are searching, it is possibly due to the name being found in the NAME_HISTORY table rather than the NAME_MASTER table. If this is the case, the first column of the search results grid should have a 'H' displayed to indicate that the row is included in the search due to a match having been made in NAME_HISTORY.

Other cases where the name might not match could be caused by the search criteria.

 

If the criteria are specified for Birth Date and State, you may find other individuals with the same Birth Date and State values.
