Hi Cynthia, When you are looking at your LegacyFamilyTree information, go to the very top bar. It shows File, Edit, Add, View, Reports, etc Click on "View" On the View tab, look at the icons below and on the far left side. It shows "Name List", and "Marriage List" Click on "Marriage List"
You can then search on either the Husband's name or the Wife's name. Click on either "Husband" or "Wife" depending on which person you want to search on. In the blank field next to the button you clicked on above, type the last name (i.e. Smith) If you have 24 Smiths, you can put a comma and then the first name (i.e. Smith, Judith) Make sure the spouse listed on the same line is the one you want. In the list at the bottom part of the window, the far left column is the MRIN you want to use for the report. Hope this helps, Evelyn On Sat, Oct 9, 2021 at 3:10 PM Cynthia N.
