Cannot figure out how to add informatin on my grandson's mother. My son and she seperated when my grandson was small and

she married another man and my grandson has two step brothers. How do I go about adding this information? I have only names for now. Can find out dates later.

    You can add your grandson as a child to his biological parents but show that they are currently divorced. The link here shows how to show that children are of biological parents or step-parents. If you add the biological children to their correct parents, you can also add your grandson and show that his father is his his biological father but that that his wife is his step-mother: https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/search?q=relationship+types

    If you need help adding children, a good source for more information is to click the circled question mark in the right upper corner of the FamilySearch pages, then in the dropdown, click Help Center, then look for the black icon labeled Family Tree. Clicking Family Tree will take you to several articles about adding people and relationships.

    Here is a link to an article that explains how to add the child as a step child.
