Entering new branch of family

I have found a new branch of the family. I can see how they are related to each other, but not how they fit into my own family although I know they are. How can I enter these people as a group pending establishment of their exact relationship

1901 census

The 1901 census has the head of the household and his wife and then a daughter-in-law and a granddaughter. The problem is that I do not know to which of his sons the lady is or was married - how do I enter them? ~Advice please!

Child wrongly identified in census

How do I deal with the fact that in the 1841 census there is a child of my great great grandfather listed asa a girl (Frances) aged 2 when I know from family records that it was in fact a boy (Francis)? Do I save the census entry as is using ancestral sources or if not what?

Change of name for inheritance

How can I enter a person who has changed their name on receipt of an inheritance? ie a son who has added his mother's maiden name as his surname, whilst keeping his original (father's) surname as a second forename
