Is there a way to get Legacy to correctly show a single unmarried parent as
an adoptive parent? My situation is I know both the biological parents and
the adoptive parent of my ancestor. When I enter the biological parents as
the first set of parents and then try to add the adoptive parent as a second
parent, Legacy insists on assigning a marriage event to an "Unknown" for the
other adoptive parent. The program will not allow me to either delete the
"Unknown" or to disolve the marriage relationship between "Unknown" and the
single parent.
Also, when I do an Ancestor Book Report, the program will only show the
parents previously selected for an individual in the family view. For
instance, if I want to print an Ancestor Book Report for my son and in this
case his grandmother was adopted but the biological parents are known, I
must select the set of parents to include in the report and the program
prints only the information for that parents ancestors. The only way that I
can show the adoptive parent is to create an event that includes her name.
However, that way never goes back any further than that parent for showing
the adoptive parent's ancestors. I hope that's not too confusing. Any
suggestions?
