Yes ... there is a father but -- there should be no
spouse/partner/significant other/etc. relationship to the adoptive
parent/sperm donor recipient/etc. parent.

Someone suggested deleting the phantom individual, however I haven't
figures out how to do that. A right click on the offending Unknown
results in options to add a husband or edit the marriage. There's no way
to delete the individual, and how to delete him to make the
relationship go away is the issue.

Even with the *This couple did not marry* box ticked:

The Descendants Book Report includes a line that says: Jane had a child
with __________________.
The Family Report includes a major block of blanks for information about
the *Husband.*
The Individual Report reports the father unknown under a *Spouses &
Children* heading.
The Descendant Report shows the father to be unknown, but still includes
the + sign that indicates a relationship with the mother.

None of these reflect the situation. Jane had NO relationship with the
sperm donor (or birth father in the case of adoption).

BTW, the obvious solution of identifying the partner as Mr. Sperm Donor
isn't really an option, as it this is more information than the mother
is willing to divulge.
