How would you represent a "Best Fit" set of parents? This concerns a direct
ancestor from a small island in Scotland (Islay). The available records have
gaps such that his parents will likely never be known; but there is one
family that stands out as a "best fit" in terms of locations, dates, names,
etc. I want to include this next generation of parents (and include research
into their other children's descent) but make it clear that this is only a
best guess. (In particular, this assumes my ancestor was born on Islay and
did not come to Islay from somewhere else.)

Do you use the Children's Settings for this and add a new setting such as
"Tentative"? This is not quite right - I want to represent that these
parent's son Donald (who is not tentative) is the best fit for "my" Donald.
