Hi CE WOOD, I did not explain myself well. I don't believe younger people are more entitled to privacy that younger people. It is not my intention to knowingly publish anything about living persons. Unfortunately, I have no knowledge whether 3 of 4 siblings listed in the 1930 census are alive or dead. I just don't know. I know for certain only about one. That's where my hesitancy comes from. I also find that the disclosing of so much personal information on the Internet worrisome. I believe that the perception of whether such disclosure is a good or bad thing is a generational one. I lean to caution about the whole issue, so I believe we are on the same side on that one. Best wishes, Margaret issue. --- On Thu, 6/30/11, CE WOOD <wood...@msn.com> wrote:

There are many people in their hundreds who still value their privacy. They probably value privacy much more so than people who grew up posting all the details of their lives on the internet! CE ----- Original Message ----- From: Margaret DeAcetis To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2011 9:09 AM Subject: [LegacyUG] GEDCOM preview results Hi all, I'm planning to create my first GEDCOM file. I've looked into the Legacy Help Section and found archived messages helpful. I see mention of "unexpected consequences." Even using the GEDCOM 5.5 options and selecting basic GEDCOM file, is there anyway to preview the results? I'm planning to select a focus group of fewer than 15 people. Can I create it, and export it into my Legacy under create a new family file? Would this allow me to preview the results? Or is there any way to preview the results? My intention is to eventually export the file into Ancestry.com so that I can attach specific Census forms, a WW I draft registration card and a SS death index doc. I intend to make comments on these records. It is my belief that all these people are dead. If not, they would be in their nineties. I do not see how attaching a 1930 Census would compromise the privacy of any of the individuals if they are still alive. Am I wrong about this? Any comments would be appreciated? I've found this Users Group super helpful.
