I find Legacy very useful for organizing the information in my "one name" database. Linked people show that way, and can be reported. Other selections (dates, locations) can be made for other reports.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Legacy for one-name study



I have a friend who is researching the incidences of one name only.  When I
asked him what he uses for a database, he told me that he couldn't use one
because the vast majority of his families do not interconnect.  I have no
experience in this, but somehow I think using Legacy for this would be
vastly superior to his paper file.  Surely it doesn't matter if you have
many, many "trees" in your file ?  Such a database could be sorted in many
useful ways  (ie location) thereby helping to find commonalities and
possible connections?  Could someone who is using Legacy for a similar
purpose please comment? Thanks,
Anne
