I have dumped Hotmail so all is OK now.
The other point I was making (see also my reply to Alan Jones) was the need
to link the kids to the marriage, as you would do for any child of the
marriage, as well as just the biological parent. The set the relationship to
the other parent as step/adopted/foster etc.

Hi Ron,
I think you may still have the email problem but I get the intent of
your
message. Having a somewhat better understanding of the strict Legacy
rules
clarified my dilemma. What I was doing is printing a descendents
chart from
higher up the tree thinking everybody would be included, but as they
aren't
blood relatives, only through marriage they didn't show up, but when
I came
down a generation on two they all appeared.
What I was hoping for is to pick any point in the tree and it would
chart
everybody using marriage and their descendents rather than blood
relationships.
Many Thanks

Hopefully (again) I have sorted out my posting problem!! Here is what
I wro=
te before:
I don't think so. What you are seeing is the same effect as mentioned
in he=
r posts. The fact is that Legacy is very strict in its definition of
a desc=
endant being a blood relative. =20 However=2C I may not be
understanding the
problem correctly=2C because on m= y Descendant Charts the 1/2 kids
do show
up. What I do is to link step and = adopted kids=2C who I wish to
show=2C to
both/all sets of parents and speci= fy the relationship to their
parents
(although normally I would not include= this on the reports). =20
Maybe you
could check this out using your DB.?

Hi Ron=2C
I'm also with you on this with messed up families and I believe I
have a similar problem. I have a person who married 3 times and all
his descende=
nts
share his paternal name but on charts there is always a part of his
descendents that is omitted. I don't have the siblings tagged as half
siblings. Is that my problem?
If I want a complete chart I have to resort to merging 2-3 charts
using T=
ree
Draw to create a single chart that show's them all.
Many Thanks
