    ALL

    In relation to this matter ...

    And, that aforementioned "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':

    How do I record gender or sex changes in Family Tree?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-record-gender-or-sex-changes-in-family-tree

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-record-gender-or-sex-changes-in-family-tree

    As a matter of "Public" Record:

    It states:

    Quote

    ------------------

    To help maintain an accurate genealogical record of the human family, use the sex recorded at birth. 

    Record any later sex or gender-related changes as custom life events in the Other Information section.

    ------------------

    Whereas ...

    Of course, for User/Patrons who are Members of the Church, there are processes that need to be addressed, in relation to the 'tenets' of the Church.

    I hope this helps.
