Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 6 Send Message	How do I add an illegitmate child to my genesreunited tree? If I click on the mothers name there is no "add child" tab to enter childs details unless I add a partner and I can't do that because there wasn't one! Hope that makes sense ! Thanks for all your help !

	You will have to add a partner and make the name 'Unknown' or something. Then you can add the child. (There must have been a father even if you don't know the name.)

	I made up a marriage with "Unknown". That was the only way I could add the name.
