I have added a child with her grandparents as her parents , could someone explain to me please how I can show her with her mother ( no father found yet )

Her mother is the daughter of her grandparents . ( hope this makes sense )

Thank you

You need to add an unknown partner to the daughter, then you can add the granddaugter as a child of the daughter and unknown partner. Sorry that sounds complicated.

Sorry to be pain and probably a silly question but if I add the grandaughter to her mother and unknown father , what happens to her husband and children ( the grandaughters ) ?

Thanks

You need to add another partner and then children to the daughter - If I am understanding you correctly. Then delete the previous ones. The new partner needs to have a later date birth than the previous fictious partner otherwise they will appear in the wrong order

Basically you can't move a group of people at one time (I don't think)
