Hi Valerie
I rather suspect you are raising this because you have tried to do
it and it is not working.
It SHOULD work like this:
1. Export to GEDCOM and select the Ancestry target.
2. Make any options on the main display and on Customise regarding which
items you want to include.
3. Use the Privacy Options and exclude living persons.
4. On Record Selection, choose the Selected records from a Focus Group
and click on the Edit Focus Group button.
5. Within the Focus Group, click on the Add an Individual and
Descendants button.
6. Change the selected person to the oldest person, ie Jeremiah VAUGHAN.
7. Enable the Descendants option, NOT the Entire Descendent line.
8. Save the group and ensure that it is selected in the Focus Group,
then click on OK..
9. Ensure that the Focus Group option is selected in Record selection
and click on Close.
10. The Export should show Focus Group records.
11. Click on Start Export.
That should extract all of the non-living persons in the tree who
are descendants of your ancestor, and presumably also their spouses.
BUT, as far as I can tell, it does not actually work and extracts
the entire tree, so option 7 does not work.
I have raised this as a Problem Report.
Regards
Chris

Subject: [LegacyUG] gedcom from Legacy to ancestry
I want to create a tree in ancestry of Jeremiah VAUGHAN, my oldest
VAUGHAN and his descendents blocking information of living descendents.
In trying to read the different suggestions I am now confused - old age
brain fade
