Jane,
You can add her as unlinked or add her where she would belong and change
her privacy option to Invisible - and you can add more to her name so
that you can see on Family View that she's tentative - I add things like
"Possible" or "Probable" to the name.
Martha, you don't go from Legacy to Legacy via Gedcom unless you really,
really are forced to. You can export the same group to a new Legacy file.
You definitely avoid a Gedcom root if you use SourceWriter sources as
the Gedcom converts them to Basic and there's no way back.

Good Morning,
Jane poses a good question and a nice way to do specific research.
I would do this:
1. Find the particular Ancestor in question on the index - bring up
the family page
2. Go at least two generations back from that Ancestor [his or her G
Grandparents.]
3. Export to a Ged com. Using the 'record Select button'
4. Notice that it is necessary to have a way to isolate the particular
individuals - otherwise you will wind up making a gedcom of your
entire database.
Now, here is the fun part.
Create either a focus group with the Ancestors G Grand Parents and
descendents or
Tag that set of G Grand Parents and descendents
Then go back to Export and create a gedcom of that particular set of
people.
Import the new specific Gedcom back into legacy as a separate database
and you have it set to use.
