Yes, I did mean Last Name Unknown. Thanks, Cathy. I now understand the principle. The marriages are all straightened and the kids with their rightful moms and dads.

The easiest way to get the parents - child link correct is to start with the parents and add the child (choosing of course the option to link to existing person as they're already in the database). LNU? I think you mean Last Name Unknown. I get over this by using the husband's surname in privacy brackets so that it never prints but shows on screen. Then I don't have a host of Elizabeth's in a list and have no idea where they fit. Cathy BARTON LEWIS wrote: Thanks. But, when I right clicked on John and unlinked to Elizabeth LNU, it removed their daughter Sarah as a child of John but left her as a daughter of Elizabeth LNU. John and Elizabeth's son John is correctly listed as their child. But Sarah is now the daughte r of Elizabeth LNU and unknown. How do I make Sarah the daughter of Elizabeth and John?

Right click on someone in main position in Family View and you'll find Unlink ... in the Menu. Choose the relationship you want to get rid of.
