You might choose to use alternate names. In the family view, click on
the icon of the "repeating" person to add the AKA. At present, Legacy
does not have a method to see at a glance which surname was used.
However, changes can be documented in the notes.

I know how to change the adoption status. My question is how to show
the two different last names. Do I have the same individual with two
last names?

Additionally, See Help>Show Help Index...>Adoption Status for details on
setting each of the Parent's relationships (Biological, Adopted etc.).
Things like this are explained very well in the training video CDs. A
worthwhile investment for getting much more out of the program.

I think that all you would do is add the child to both fathers. First you
have a marriage between the two original parents, add the child. Do the
divorce. Add the second husband to the wife. Click add a child,
select link
to an existing son. You will get the message that (Childs name) is
already
a child of another family add as a child to this family also? click OK.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Adoption Question
How do I handle a situation such as the following. I have a husband and
wife, they have a child. They divorce. The mother remarries. The new
father
adopts the child and the child takes the new fathers last name.
Thanks
