Dave, I'm not sure what you intend to do with the selection you described. You can get part of it quickly with features already in Legacy. Highlight the person in Family tab for whom ancestry will be the focus. Control T to start advanced tagging options. Set the tag number to be changed. Clear that tag first if necessary. Click "Ancestors" then click "Direct Line Ancestors" and check the box under that to "Include Siblings". You may also want to check "Include Spouses of Siblings". Set the "Number of Generations to include" as desired. Then click OK to set the tag number selected. When tagging is finished, you will have the direct line ancestry and all children linked to that tree with the tag set.
If you really want the children of those children, you would have to tag descendants of each of the direct line individuals to 3 generations. A focus group might help with that process. Once you get individuals tagged, then you can use that subset for whatever purpose you had in mind.

Does anyone have any clues how to do this?
