An interesting aside to all of this is that where only one parent is
entered,  ie. the second parent is left blank, the children of the
person entered do not appear on the Individual Report of the parent. A
MRIN is created and the MRIN also appears against the child's record in
the table tbIR. Enter UNKNOWN as the second parent and the children will
appear on the Individual Report. Delete the second parent and they will
no longer appear on the Individual Report. A quirk I noticed yesterday
when printing some records of newly added persons.
