Thanks, Ron. You are correct.
What I was trying to do is create a Father's Tree for each of my aunt's
grandchildren.

There are three children in total, two of which are biological and one
child belongs to each of her two daughters. The third daughter adopted a
baby boy (Noah) and who is the youngest member of the family. I wanted to
be fair and give all three children  a Father's Tree, so there wouldn't be
hurt feelings.  I didn't know how to do this for Noah since the generations
of people on the chart are not his heritage.

I created a Father's Tree  for him today and to my surprise, there was no
indication that he was adopted. His birth (date/place) appeared and
nothing more (eventhough I had the child relationship settings for each
parent set as "adopted".) Perhaps if I had a date of his adoption, that may
have shown on the chart; but for now, it looks like everyone will get a
Father's Tree of their own.

Thank you Ron for replying to my posts and for the help you offer this list.
