Can someone advise please on how to put this into my tree, two brothers with the same mother, one has a named father (on his marriage cert) ,the other has no named father, and I have no reason, as yet, to think that the named father was a "partner" of his mother.... Help would be appreciated. many thanks.

I would "add spouse" for mother, just put "father unknown" for name then you can add other child.
