Often when a photo is tagged which contains friends the program expects them to be added to the family records even though the are just friends of a family member in that picture and may only be tagged with a first christian name. can they not be tagged without attatching them.

    FYI

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    Short Answer: 'No'.

    That sort of "Tagging", of a "Memory", in 'FamilySearch', IS to "Tag", the individuals/persons, that ALREADY exists, in the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'.

    That sort of "Tagging", of a "Memory", in 'FamilySearch', is NOT simply, to indicate WHO is in a "Memory".

    You can DO that sort of thing, of indicating WHO is in a "Memory", by either,

    (1) ADDING the details, of those in a "Memory", in the "Text" of "Share what you know about this Image"

    .... [ ie. Under (beneath) the "Memory" ... ]

    Or,

    (2) In the "Description" of the "Memory" - if, you are/were the one adding the "Memory", in the first place.

    Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':

    How do I tag memories of my ancestors or relatives in Family Tree?

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-tag-memories-of-my-ancestors-or-relatives-in-family-tree

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-tag-memories-of-my-ancestors-or-relatives-in-family-tree

    Where, it states, among other things:

    Quote

    ------------------

    Tags on photos and documents identifies the people who are in them. Tags can also ensure that the photo or document appears with the person’s record in Family Tree.

    ------------------

    I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.
