Hi Everyone, my wife and I did our Ancestry DNA 2 years ago. A first cousin once removed on my wife’s line did hers 2 months ago. We have a problem with that cousin’s grandmother. We have found her mother has no name for the father. Querying this within the family it seems grandmother was aware of the trouble it would cause she put her husbands name elsewhere/other documents. |

So the great grandmother thought her husband was not the father of the child, so didn’t put him on the birth certificate. Were they married at the time? |

They were married at the time. Certificate is empty for the father. I manage my wif'e DNA. Cousin is just reopening her account with Ancestry. Her tree is on there ...... |

Well the certificate would be in her current surname if she was still married |
