John, Was the second wife deceased by 1829 (or whenever he adopted Adam?). The answer to that question would have an impact on what you do, IMO.

However, can I - and how - show ONLY a biological mother and totally seperately an adopting father? Specifically: James (father) b 1775 had two wives and several children by 1829. Elizabeth (mother) b 1807 had son Adam b 1829 out of wedlock. James adopted Adam; there is no known relationship between James and Elizabeth. How do I avoid having Elizabeth appear as a third wife of James? or of James having three wives?
