Thanks Ron;
Yes, the refresh button seems to have solved the problem.
And I have run across Seddon (and other branches also) families living next
door to some of my known ancestors when doing census checks, and I was
wondering how to keep track of them "just in case". This sounds like a
sensible way to handle that, with some appropriate notes to remind me if
they do link up.
Thanks again,
Art Seddon

Art,
Legacy does not automatically maintain the counters for records in each
tree. When you click "View", then "Tree Finder...", you will see the
"Refresh..." button. It is necessary to click that to force the program
to re-count individuals in each tree.
As to your original question, I always enter those who might be related
into my database so that if I do find the links they are already in place
to be connected. At times a "Find Duplicates" search under the Merge has
found some of these links just waiting to be made because they were
present in the same database.
Please post again if the "Refresh..." button resolves your issue or not.
