Yes, that is exactly what we need.  Thank you Stephanie

Answer 1

It looks like you have successfully added two children to Albert's profile.  I assume you wish to add children only to Albert since you are unsure which child belongs to which mother?

If this is the case, click on the edit tab for Albert, go down below where his spouses are listed to the list of children.  Click on add/edit link.  This takes you to the page to add a child for Albert.  (I tried it and it worked). After filling in the child's info,  When you get to the bottom you have a choice of adding one of Albert's wives as the mother.  Do not click one if you are unsure of the mother.  This will add the child to Albert only.

Answer 2

You have to send a Trusted List request to the profile manager of the father's profile. Also, put a message on the comments on the profile.

The manager is not visibly  active but some people do more with emails then on the tree. He will have a month to respond.
