How to treat nephews,nieces etc.

Post by wigansaint »

On numerous censuses I have other relatives other than sons and daughters living at an address. I tried adding a nephew of the head of household (Putting nephew as relation ) but he was recorded in FH as being a son of the head of household. How do others treat these relatives?

If you created the person in AS you must have used the Create Child option. If the "nephew" is not already in your database the simplest way is to use the Edit>Add Unrelated Individual and then once you establish where they belong attach them.
