Agreed! There have been several adoptions in my genealogy, and the child involved is shown with two sets of parents, one biological and adoptive. If you care not to show the biological parents, it is less messy to show.

So whether or not to include them is, I suggest, dependant on the objective of the report. Incidentally, it may not be widely known but in English Law an adopted child has all the rights of a biological child, including the same rights of inheritance from the adoptive parents as the biological children. They also lose any rights which they may otherwise have from their natural parents.

How get the 1/2 kids to show on the Descendant Report.

I know there was at one time because I have done it before but in the current version it is not working or I don't know how to view it in that screen.
