Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
John This is a bit unorthodox, but if you're not using the Record ID for anything else, you could enter something there to show your level of Link Proof. The Record ID can be added to the ends of displayed names and would show up pretty much anywhere. See the View tab under the Options/Customize section. Give it a try and report back ...

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
You might be able to use one of the tags in Legacy. Choose one that you'll display on the family page and tag everyone for whom you have the necessary link proof.

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
Dave, If you attach a source to the Father (Rel) and Mother (Rel), is there any way to make this source information show up in reports, or would one have to create an actual event, such as a Relationship event? If one uses the Father (Rel) and Mother (Rel), it would be nice if the sources attached to these would show up as sources for the Father and Mother in a FGS.

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
John, Before you start, ask yourself this question: Do most of the people in your database have proved links to their parents? If so, then the ones you want to mark visibly would be the ones that have yet to be proven. So whatever recommendations you get, I would suggest you try to do it with the smaller pool of names. Some people might suggest that you not link the names of people you haven't proved descent for. Not sure how workable that is for you. If it is simply a condition that you just haven't located true sources for the people yet, but feel they are real children, then I understand more of what you are looking for. The asterisk mentioned previously might help there (maybe put it in the Title Pre. box where it could be easily added or deleted, and quickly viewed).

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
Hi Debbie, So long as you've chosen to include Child-Parent Relationships in the Report Options, the Sources for the Rel to Mother and Rel to Father show on a Family Group Sheet. For people where there are only sources for these, after the parent you'll find (Relationship xx, xx) where xx represents the source number. I think I may have found a bug as they still show when you choose to not include Child-Parent Relationships. However, they don't show if you have never chosen to include Child-Parent Relationships.

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
Thanks, Cathy! That is really neat. I've used Legacy for years and never knew that was there. It worked fine for me. I ticked the Child-Parent Relationships in the options and they showed with the sources, then I went back and unchecked Child-Parent Relationships and they didn't show.

[LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
Link Proof [for me] is that document which proves a link between two individuals. Examples: (1) a marriage certificate proves a link between husband and wife. (2) a birth certificate proves a link between child and both parents. A county history, for example, that lists a family is not proof but does allow one to enter the info while searching elsewhere for link proofs. I'm am NOT asking where to record marriage or birth certificates or other link proofs of child-parent relationships - Legacy provides many ways and places for doing this. In Family View the Marriage Information block provides a good, easily visible Link Proof of the marriage, and one click on sources confirms the link.

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof
I have a similar, though different reason for the same function -- mine is an occupation study and I like to be able to easily see which children were silversmiths. I use two surnames: Doe and Doe* -- the latter indicating a maker. It is easily seen on the family view and as easily gotten rid of. If I generate reports or web pages, just do a backup, then search and replace the *. When the reports/pages are done, I dump the file and restore the backup.
