Tricky one as legally her husband will show as father on the child's birth certificate.

Can you not just set up an additional "marriage" for the mother and show it that way?

Add a second spouse to her (named "unknown partner" or similiar).

Add the child as the child of the female and the unknown partner.

If a married woman has a child but her husband is not the father how is this shown on the tree?

Thank you
