From Gramps
→Alternative: don't create a person
* Gramps supports this
* You might encounter the same person again in your research. Having them in the person view increases the likely-hood of you recognizing it is the same person as the one that appears as witness.
* The ''[[Gramps_6.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Tools#Find_Possible_Duplicate_People|Find DuplicatesPossible Duplicate People]]'' tool has more information to work with.
If you nevertheless want to record the witness, without creating a person, use the attribute tab of the event instead. You can add to the event in the attribute tab, the attribute of type ''witness'', and with as value the name.
