It will not let you add "siblings" without specifying how you mean to use
that term. Did they have fathers, mothers, or both in common? Of course,
you may not know (and that's the purpose of the source and surety fields)
but it isn't a "dummy" parent since you're asserting something specific
about which parent(s) that the children had in common, even if you don't
happen to know their _names_ .
