 Hi Stephen, Thanks for your post. In order to add a person like your father to your profile, you would need to become a full member. 

In addtiton to clicking on Volunteer button you would need to finish the process of filling out your tags as now required. Once you do that you will be confirmed by one of our friendly greeters!!

Here's how to do the Tags: 

You may want to add some tags on your page indicating a family name for one tag and a specific location like a country, state etc you are interested in, for another tag and then add other surnames or locations as tags as desired. That way you will be connected to others with the same interest.

Click on http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Following to add or remove tags. Be sure to add comments explaining why you're following the tags. Those appear on your profile too.

*If you need help using Wiki Tree, or your not sure how to use WikiTree check out this page https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:New_Member_How-To for our step by step guide.

Click the edit tab on the child profile. On the right side of the edit page, you will see a link to family members including the father. If there is an existing profile for the father, just add the Wiki ID at the top of the page that opens and click "Go." If there is no father profile yet, you can create it from the page that opens.

Hope that helps.
