I would like to give equal time to another filing system. The color code that Legacy uses was built on Mary E. V. Hill organization system. I have been to one of her demonstration seminar's. They are great !
Why not give her equal time ? http://www.maryevhill.com/about.htm Select "training". From the new page, select "lessons" Also look at the wiki.familysearch.org and: https://wiki.familysearch.org/en/Organizing_Your_Files At the bottom, you will see "Links to Other Sites about Organizing" FamilySearch The last two will take you directly to the system.
