Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

Just in passing ...

I Child cannot be "Sealed" to just one Parent alone.

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

Can a child be sealed to parents when one of the parent’s names is unknown?

https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/sealing-to-parent-ordinance-when-name-of-parent-is-unknown

IF, the Child's Father, is "Unknown"; THEN, ...

IF, the Child's Mother either, was "Married"; and/or, later "Married"; and/or, was in a "Relationship" with a Man; and, the Child was "Part", of any one of those "Relationships"; as, a Child; THEN, the Child can be "Sealed", to their ("Biological") Mother; and, that Man.

Whereas ...

Failing, any such "Relationships"; as, in the aforementioned ...

The Child, can be "Sealed", to their "Maternal" Grandparents; so that, the Child is connected with the Family.

ie. Their Mother; and, her Parents and Ancestors.

To "Seal" a Child, to their Grandparents, one must setup a "Parent-Child" Relationship, between, the Child; and, their Grandparents; where, the "Type" of "Parent-Child" Relationship is "Guardianship".

This "Type" of "Parent-Child" Relationship is simple to enabling the "Sealing" of the Child to their Ancestors.

The "Type" of "Parent-Child" Relationship is ALWAYS "Retained"; but, is ONLY for "Temple" Work".

Good Luck.

Just my thoughts.

I hope, that, this; and, these, may help/assist, somewhat.
