Family sharing with only one email address

Hi suzannefrombelvidere,

I understand that you would like to set up Family Sharing. I have an article for you all about setting up Family Sharing, and it can be found right here:

Invite people to join your family

You can add anyone who has an Apple ID to your family, as long as you're both using iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite on your devices. You can also use these steps to add a child to your family group.

Invite someone from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:

1. Go to Settings > iCloud > Family > Add Family Member.
2. Enter your family member's name or email address.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions.

Invite someone from your Mac:

1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
2. Click Manage Family.
3. Click +, then follow the onscreen instructions.

If your family member is with you, they can enter their Apple ID password on your device to accept the invitation. You can also send them an invitation, and they can accept from their device.

It sounds like you may want your family members to create some Apple IDs for your them to use on their devices as well. Here is an article that explains the Apple ID creation process in more detail:

Additionally, if you may want to use iCloud as your email address and Apple ID. Here is some information about creating an iCloud account:

Hope this helps you get started with Family Sharing. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!
