→Alternative: don't create a person
* Gramps supports this.
* You might encounter the same person again in your research. Having him in the person view increases the likelihood of you recognizing it is the same person as the one that appears as godfather/mother.
* The {{man label|[[Gramps_4.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Tools#Find_Possible_Duplicate_People...|Find_Possible_Duplicate_PeopleFind Possible Duplicate People...]]}} tool has more information to work with.
If you nevertheless want to record the godfather/mother, without creating a person, use the attribute tab of the person instead. You can add to a person the attribute godfather/mother, with as value the name. You can do the same with the baptize event.
