I like "everything" to print so I use Events a lot. When I first started with Legacy, I entered everything under each Individual - so for example a Residence, I would enter it under the Husband and then again under the Wife. This was great for Individual Reports, however, it didn't take too long to realize it was a lot of repetitious information when running other reports as the same information would be repeated.
So now I enter "Individually" anything to do with a person that I consider relating to that person "only" such as his occupation, birth, etc... and anything to do with the Marriage such as Residences (while married), family trips, etc.. under Marriage Events. This way no matter what the report, it shows a full history of a person or family without the same information printing out twice. ________________________________ Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 07:16:50 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [LegacyUG] Use of the marriage information To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyFamilyTree.com When you are intering information that pertains to both spouses should you enter individually for each spouse or wuld it be better to enter it into the marriage section. I am thinking of something like vacations or other things that the family might do.
