Allan,
normally you enter the birth name and put other names in AKAs and also
add notes or an event to document the change of name.
When children are adopted as babes, some use the adopted name as the
main name but still have an AKA (in this case for the birth name) and
the notes or event to make sure it is clear.
There may be better ways to handle this and if you can think of how,
send in a suggestion. See the Legacy Home tab or the Help Ribbon tab for
the link to do this.

I know the adoptees parents.
Have entered both sets of parents into legacy.
However, the child s middle name and family name was changed when he
was adopted out.
Legacy doesn’t seem to handle the change of name from the birth name
to the adopted name.
How can I resolve this other than by starting another line from the
adoptees parents.
