I would think that for now, you might be best off using the relationship chart anyway.....
Run it for persons 1 and 2..... it will say that common ancestor is person A Run it for persons 1 and 3.... maybe the common ancestor is person B Run it for person 1 and 4.... maybe the common ancestor is person A again...... ok - so..... Run it for person A and B.... ok let's say person B is person A's grandfather..... then you are looking at person B so far being the closest common ancestor.... continue on using various combinations for a bit.... I suspect that you will keep getting common people coming up... maybe a person C will show up.... how is he related to person B? same for any others. I'd probably personally try person 1 against each other person. That certainly isn't all the combinations - but you will probably see a pattern coming up on who is coming up as the common ancestors! After doing a few combinations - run a descendancy chart for the most likely candidate..... (the new charting in V7 would be best for this - but use what you have now....) - are all the people tested that matched on his decendancy??? If not - maybe run the chart for his father - and then grandfather...... how about now? Yes, it would be great if Legacy looked at your file with all the matches and figured it out for you - but I figure that using the method I suggest, you could probably figure it out in 30 minutes or so....
