How can I connect two brothers who marry two sisters without creating a cycle?

Right now I have the brothers individually married to the sisters, so the brothers are not yet connected.

Thanks!

  Paul, I'm not sure about what cycles are and how they work, but I have many cases in my tree where two brothers married two sisters, and you just connect both brothers to the same parents as well as having the sisters connected to their parents. WHen you view in tree view, it will place the brothers in both spots and indicate that there are two nodes for the same person with a small 2 in the corner of the node.

  Thanks Pam, but I was trying to avoid the two nodes for the same person.

  These are cycles: http://help.geni.com/entries/469824-how-can-i-show-more-than-one-relationship-between-the-same-2-people
