All right if there is always a sorceress, and when they die they pass on their powers, and Ultimicea passed her powers to Edea by traveling into the past, wouldn't there then be two sorceress' at that point in time, the one that is continuing the line, and now Edea with the powers from Ultimicea from the future?

Yes: Adel.

AH right, forgot Adel was locked up in space that whole time, thanks!

Also, bear in mind that there's nothing contradictory about the presence of more than one Sorceress. One Sorceress doesn't tend to have all the power. There are probably Sorceresses of much lesser power that were never shown in-game, for instance. It's expected, however, that they were largely in hiding.

What with the fact that if Adel can try to absorb Rinoa's powers, Ulty-as-Edea would likely have desired the same of the others.

No i have no problem with there being more than one, but I was thinking before Edea got her powers from Ulti, there wasn't even one, and that's what confused me.

There are multiple sorceresses. Not just one. Edea inherited power twice, after all.
