On Noah's Family Page, are his adoptive parents shown as his parents? If so, they will be shown on the Lineage chart. You need to click on the Parents icon, and mark his biological parents as the preferred parents. Then, when you create the chart, the biological parents will be the ones on the chart. Remember to change back to the adoptive parents, if that is who you normally have as his parents.

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.

Any individual can have multiple sets of parents, known or unknown,. An adopted child can be linked to her adoptive parents, and if desired can be designated as “adopted” by right clicking the child’s name>Children’s settings and choosing father’s and mother’s relationship.

My aunt has four children, three are married with biological children of their own and the fourth sister recently married and adopted a baby boy. Since I am including charts for her siblings biological children (e.g. Father's Tree), is there a chart in Legacy that I can put together for her adopted child. I am not trying to have her feel left out. Any ideas are appreciated.
