A stand-in card for someone you know existed but can't name yet – like "Grandad's Father". It holds their place so the rest of the family joins up properly. When you find out who they were, fill it in and press Make this a real person. For example, if you know Grandad's dad was a sailor but not his name, a placeholder keeps the branch in shape until you do.
