I've had to use this as well. The best way I know of is to create the marriage and add the child. Once done then select the member of the family, click Edit > Marriage and check the box near the top left that says, "This couple did not marry". On reports it will now say "Jill had a relationship with Jack" instead of something like "Jill married Jack".
There is no real reason to worry over it being listed as a spouse within the application, so long as the report gets it right. It's the print version that needs to eliminate it as a marriage and as long as you check the box, it will. > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of W Gurney > Sent: 03 March 2008 23:34 > To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com > Subject: [LegacyUG] Adding Illegitimate Children > Need help adding an illegitimate child to a father who later marries another > person and has several children by her.
