Hi Cheri and Joanne Yes, creating two families (two sets of parents) is also possible. But in this case, his biological parents are unknowns.. I don't think it's useful to create such a 1-person family. Depending on the program, you can set what type of relationship the parents have to the child, and marking this one as adopted should suffice to say that these aren't the biological ones..
I'd clearly add the Benevides as parents of Francisco, not simply as notes. These were for all purposes the only parents he knew. However, there's no denying that the DNA is from someone else..
