How do I show that a couple have separated as a relationship event. The options in the drop down menu do not have an option for this.

'Yes', you are correct ...

.

The ONLY current available 'Events' of the 'breakdown' of a "Couple Relationship", are "Annulment"; and, "Divorce".

.

There is NO available 'Event' such as "Separated"; whether, that be 'legally' (ie. "Officially") or otherwise.

.

In answer to your question: As a "Note" in a NUMBER of ways/places ...

.

Firstly ...

In the "Reason This Information Is Correct" under the existing relationship "Event" (ie. as an "Addendum" to the existing 'Event"; which, indicates the "Separation").

.

Secondly ...

Under the "Couple Relationship", and, down to the "Relationship Notes"; as, a new "Note".

.

Thirdly ...

For BOTH individuals/persons, under the "Other Information" Section; as, at least, a "Custom Fact"; but, also as a "Custom Event", if the 'Date' and 'Place' are know (especially, it was a 'legally' documented "Separation".)

.

As an aside ...

.

We have been advised by 'FamilySearch' (through another longtime Forum) that the "Couple Relationship" part of "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is undergoing a major 'revamp', we will have to wait and see ...

.

I hope this helps.

ps: You may wish to provide "Feedback" to 'FamilySearch", suggesting an additional "Event" such as "Separation" for a "Couple Relationship".

.

You can do such through the "Feedback" link at the bottom of most pages/screens; and, leaving the "Suggestion or Compliment" marked/checked; and, selecting the 'Button' to "Share your idea". That will take you the the 'FamilySearch' ("GetSatisfaction") 'Feedback' Forum where you can "Share an Idea".
