== How do I represent a divorce? ==

''I want to indicate that two people are divorced, yet GRAMPS does not have a Relationship type of Divorced. How do I represent this?''

GRAMPS does not consider ''Divorced'' to be a relationship type. Instead, it is an event that terminates the relationship. If two people are divorced, it does not change the fact that they had a relationship type of ''Married''. Divorce, like Death, is one way in which a marriage is terminated. Just as the death of a spouse does not change that fact that two people were married, a divorce does not change the fact that two people were married.

So to represent a marriage that ended in divorce:

# Create a family
# Add both spouses
# Set the relationship to ''Married''
# Add an Event of type ''Divorce''
