Bill, I would enter her as Mary Hinton and create spouse #1 as Joseph Brown. Change the Marital status of this marriage to Death of one spouse. Create spouse #2 as George Miller.
This way on your reports it will show both marriages. Doris _____ From: k...@legacyfamilytree.com [mailto:k...@legacyfamilytree.com] On Behalf Of Bill Rhodes Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 4:33 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: [LegacyUG] How to retain wife's married name as entered Could someone tell me how to do this correctly? Here is the problem: GGM Mary Hinton married Joseph Brown. In Legacy I entered Wife's name as Mary Hinton. Joseph died five years later. Marriage #2 was to George Miller. I entered Wife's name as Mary Hinton Brown. Problem: When I do the above, Legacy automatically changes her (Wife's) name to Mary Hinton Brown - which is wrong and not as I entered. So my question is "how can I keep her name the same as I enter it without Legacy changing it?" The solution is probably simple but I have tried everything I can think of an nothing works - so I need someone's advice. Thanks, Bill R.
