Hi Barton, There's another way to approach this. Unlink the child from the father again, then add BOTH parents at the same time, since you say they're already linked to each other as spouses.
With the child in the middle (parent) position in Family View, right-click on the child and select Add > parents, then select the pair from the list that comes up. There's often more than one way to do a task in Legacy. :-) Wendy Barton Lewis wrote on 18/03/2015 16:05: > > I need to add a different mother to someone in Legacy, so I unlinked > him from his parents.
