How to unlink a child?

Hi there,

I have a family set up with MOTHER AND FATHER having five children together.

I have found out via parish records that the youngest child was born 4 years after the father of the rest of the family had died. On the PR only the mother's name is present.

Is there anyway of 'unlinking' this child so her parents only as as the mother?

Thanks.

Create an unnamed (second) partner for the mother and move the child to the new parents (ie unlink from the existing parents and re-link the child to the mother and unnamed partner.) You may eventually find out who the father was and then you just need to give the  unnamed partner a name.
