"/I have strong reasons to believe that Nicolaus Schommer is a brother to Maria and Susanna, but I have no hard proof. So he is left out for now, but he is mentioned in other areas why I think he is a brother. Since I haven't added him yet, I guess I haven't completely lost it yet, although I'm working on it. ;)"/
I would Add: New Unlinked Individual; and create Nicolaus' profile - I would then decide if his link to the chosen family is thru' his father or mother, and take note of their Rin.No. Back to Nicolaus' new profile, right click empty space at top for either mother or father, click Add Mother/Father and enter the relevant parent's Rin.No. ( It should leave the father's name blank, or rather leave the space empty for later in case you find Nicolaus' father, say, was in fact from a second union by his mother, so you can right-click and pop the new daddy in.) This will show as the 2nd "m" , and when you click on m1 for him/her, sitting there as 1/2 siblings, should be Maria and Susanna.
If you lata find Nicolaus is in fact a full brother to Maria and Susanna, go to parents' in Family View and Add: Nicolaus as An Existing Person. then remove Nicolaus from the m2 link from the relevant parent, and then delete the marriage link attached to eith the father/mother.
If Nicolas, Maria and Susanna had other sisters and brothers, their surname and/or married names known but christian names not - I enter each as Miss with their m.names in brackets after e.g. Miss (m.Smith); Mr (m.Brown) just to make it a little quicker/easier to recognise later when further details emerge, removing this reference later if/when desired. If I do not know someone's surname., I enter their Christian names into the Surname Box, so they're searchable in the Index.
Hope all that's clearer than mud.
