Greetings, listers I'm a newbie to this list, so if I inadvertently do something untoward, please be gentle
My question regards people who are "missing links" in familial relationships. For example, one of my top-level ancestors appears in a census with a sister and granddaughter living with her. I don't know which of her sons is father to the granddaughter and I know nothing about her parents. However, I do want to record the existence of the sister and the granddaughter. The only way that I can think of, is to invent an "unknown" son and link the granddaughter to him and to invent an unknown father and link the sister via him. This isn't very elegant, especially when I produce an ancestor book and have people named "unknown" floating around the place. Does anyone have a more elegant solution?
