Default Sorting Blank Cells

I have a worksheet similar to this:
A B C D E
1 Fname Lname Relative RelFName RelLName
2 Jim Jones Dad Robert Jones
3 Mom Nancy Jones
4 Sister Haley Jones
5 Liz White Mom Beth White
6 Dad Bill White
7 Uncle Joe Jackson
8 Grandfather Earl Wilson
9 Frank Anderson Dad Jim Anderson
10 Mom Betty Anderson
11 Grandfather Harry Early

12


Row 1 is the header row.
I want to sort Col A and/or Col B but keep the relative infromation with the
right people. I think I could do it if I had the FName and LName typed in
each cell rather than leaving them blank, but it looks odd. Is there a
better way? I've tried merging cells A2:A4 and B2:B4, etc but it will not
sort properly.
