Jane, I understand that you are uncertain whether "Nelson" is Susanna's maiden name or whther she had a previous marriage to a "Nelson", in event Carrie's surname is "Nelson" and her father is unknown. First unlink Carrie from her current parents, then create another marriage for Susanna - click on the spouse Icon for Susanna and add a new husband called "unknown". Then link Carrie to this marriage.
Return to the Spouse screen and ensure that the marriage to "Unknown" is first in the list.

I do not know if she was illegitimate or had a father named Nelson. Somehow I got my ancestor iinput as Carrie's father, which is quite incorrect.When I try to unlink Carrie from my ancestor, it only allows one to unlink from "parents". Of course, I only wish to unlink from the father. I am not sure how to fix this. Nor can I decide how to handle the correct father of Carrie. Help? Jane S.
