I realize the original post is old, but I have just re-subscribed and am trying to "catch up"...?!
What caught my eye was the mention of "the Relationship field(s)" in Kristen's post below. I don't believe I've heard of this field for an Individual before. Can someone enlighten me? (I've checked Help. I'm on v 7.5.0.40.) I do have a parentage that is questionable, so this field could be useful to me. Right now I just have a note in ALL CAPS in the Research Notes field. (Now that I'm re-reading Kirsten's post, I'm not sure what she means by "add a note to the Name field" either... ?)

These are all kept in a Stray folder under the appropriate surname. With a few, when I'm pretty sure where they go due to circumstantial evidence, I attach them and >>>>> add a note to the Name field saying that the link is tentative.
