    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

    Just in passing ...

    Short Answer: Just "Add" a "Child" to a Mother; as, a SECOND Parent (ie. in this case. a Father) is NOT required.

    ie. That 'Bottom' OPTION in the "Family Members" Section: + Add Child with an Unknown Father

    Good Luck.

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

    How does the system accommodate children born with different last names because of divorce and remarriage or where the child is born out of wedlock but the father is known?
