JoElayne; Thank you for this. I have FTM 2012 and it does let me show blended families but; I'm not familiar with what you mention below. Could you give me step by step directions? Can I go back after the 2nd spouse has been entered and do something to indicate on the step-parent's "page" that there are step-children? Thanks, Sam in CA

Sam, I use FTM and I can put both my bio and my adopted dads in. Once I put my adopted dad in as my mom's husband, it let me go back and put in my relationship to him. Options: Bio, Step, Adopted.

Actually, as far as I know as a user of FTM, it has a spot you can click to add a 2nd, 3rd, or more spouses and you can add children to that couple but; it does not have a place for a child to have multiple parents other than the note field. Please, do correct me if I am wrong.

I think probably all genealogy programs today can handle this. I think it's maybe that we just don't know because some of us haven't encountered multiple parents in our trees.
