How do I save a Member to the root of a dimension (as a child of Hierarchy)?

I have tried the SaveMemberAndRelationshipInfo method, but this gives me the error:  Error creating parent-child relationship.  Invalid Parameter. child, [CHILDNAME].

The workaround I've found was to find all the parents of a sibling member that rolls up to the root, and then just picking the first one:

BRApi.Finance.Members.GetParents(si, dimPk, sibling, includeRootMemberInResult, dimDisplayOptions).Item(0)

				Dim newMember As MemberInfo = Nothing
			     
				'Get the dimension parent member which will give us the dimension / relationship info need to create the member

			    If Not parentMem Is Nothing Then
