Sure, that's a concise answer to what I actually wrote, but it wasn't
exactly what I intended :)

Basically, what I've got is the first person and the tag_type. I can do
it with a function from PHP:

function get_spouses($p) {
$handle = pg_query("select person from principals
where event in (select event from principals
where person = $p and tag_type = " .MARR. ")
order by sort_date");
$i=0;
$spouses = array();
while ($row = pg_fetch_row($handle) {
if $row[0] != $p
$spouses[$i++] = $row[0];
}
return $spouses;
}

But this is *ugly* ...
