There are several members of this group that might make use of it. Bobby -----Original Message----- From: Ron Ferguson [mailto:ronfergy....@tiscali.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2012 12:19 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Y-DNA List For the last few days I have had a niggle, or to be accurate my mind has. It started just after there was a post which asked why someone used Ancestors Tagging instead of Descendants, to which I replied that they were different. A piece of information which I had never really thought about. Last night, over a contemplative pint, I realised that this information could be put to use in selecting males for Y-DNA GEDCOMs as requested by, say FT-DNA. Create a GEDCOM for Y-DNA: Part 1 Select three unused Tags (or make sure that they are cleared) - I am going to use 1, 2, and 3 Starting with myself Go to Advanced Tagging and select Tag 1 Select Ancestors Select Direct Line Ancestors Uncheck "Include other spouses" OK and then Close Part 2 Starting with my oldest male direct line ancestor Go to Advanced Tagging and select Tag 2 Select Descendants Select Descendants (includes all descendants) OK and then Close Part 3 Search>Find>Detail Search 1st Row Individual: Male Where to look: Tag 1 Equals Tagged AND 2nd Row Individual Male Where to look: Tag 2 Equals Tagged Now ensure that "Clear list before this search is checked" and then Create List Part 4 On the new screen click options then Advanced Tagging and select Tag 3 Select Everyone in Search List Close Part 5 Create GEDCOM selecting Tag 3 as the criteria. Tested and verified today.
