I would probably add as a son (or daughter) of the family I felt might be their family, then add a ? in the Title field. This would alert me to a dubious connection; maintain notes in the research notes explaining why I feel this person 'might' belong. If you find the person doesn't belong to the family line, simply unlink from parents, delete and run file maintenance. If you find they do belong but should be entered with another family, unlink from parents, then reattach to correct set of parents.
Mary -----Original Message----- From: Jane Sarles [mailto:[email protected]] I have an ancestor from early Virginia, Timothy Redding. He is found in early records along with others, Francis, John, William, Arthur, etc. Their relationship is not named and there is no clue as to what it may be. I know that I can put those other guys in as unlinked people, but they will not show up when I study my data and am trying to fit clues together as to who Timothy's parents or brothers are. Am I correct in thinking that it is not possible to have the other Redding men to show up in family view or individual chart (which is what I use to do my major work and thought.) If they are in as 'unlinked"? I seldom think to go to the list of unlinked people to compare with data I am discovering as I research. Wondering how others handle this?
