    Easy ...

    .

    "Add an Unconnected Person" ...

    .

    HOW, you ask ...

    .

    ▬ "Pedigree" View (ie. "Landscape")

    ▬ ▬ Select "Recents"

    ▬ ▬ ▬ Go down to the 'Bottom' of the list.

    ........... Right at the bottom, "Add an Unconnected Person".

    .

    Unconnected Person _ Pedigree _ Recents _ v2.

    Start from there ...

    .

    Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch'

    .

    How do I add an unconnected person to Family Tree?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-add-an-unconnected-person-to-family-tree

    .

    I hope this helps.

    ps: As an aside ...

    .

    We DO NOT have our OWN "Tree" in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    .

    We ONLY have "Branches" (ie. Ancestral" lines), that are interconnected, in this SINGLE "One" World "Tree", for all of us, that is "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    .

    "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is NOT like 'On-Line' "Websites" (eg. "Ancestry_com"; or "MyHeritage_com"; or, the like); and/or, 'standalone' personal (computer) programmes (eg, the OLD, now no longer supported, "PAF"; or, "Ancestral Quest"; or, the like).

    .

    We DO NOT have "Private"/"Personal" 'Trees' in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' like other 'On-Line' "Websites"; and/or, 'standalone' personal (computer) programmes.

    .

    We do not even, own; or, manage; and, are NOT even responsible for, the "Deceased" individuals/persons in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    .

    "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is built on a "Open Edit" Platform - hence, why any registered User/Patron can "Edit" (ie. Add, Delete; and/or, Change) ANY "Deceased" individual/person in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.
