Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Descriptive terminology of relationship of Godparent to Child

Denis,

I guess  you could put numbers 1, 2, and 3 in a hat and pick one.  You're
right, none of them are ideal.  I can't think of anything except what
you've offered.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy reports

Geneva C-G,

Everyone on this list is going to tell you their software is the best.

Almost all the software will print books or reports and because it is a
computer program, the printouts will have a machine like or computer like
feel to them.  All of them will do this.

Download Legacy www.legacyfamilytree.com (Standard Edition is free) and
Gedcom your stuff over and see how the reports/books print out for you.
Then download RootsMagic: www.RootsMagic.com/Essentials.  The Essentials is
free.  Gedcom your stuff over too and see how that works for you.  Then you
can go to The Master Genealogist (www.whollygenes.com) and download that
for 30 days free.  Play around with these 3 and see what you like.

Family Tree Maker plus the above 3 are the most popular genealogy software
programs out there for the PC.  It's just finding the one that suits you on
most of the things you want.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Listing childless marriages?

2013-08-22 Thread João Ventura
Tomás,

The approach here is what you want to do with your records.. Do you want a 
simple listing of births, marriages and deaths? Or do you want to tell that 
person's life story? Stuff like occupation, immigration, and yes previous 
and/or childless marriages. If it's part of his life, and you've got data 
to support that part of it, you should definitively have it in.
