Re: [LegacyUG] Notes for Name fields
Bert: I appreciate those fields and that is my question for comparison. I use all of those note fields and I have frequently used the Birth notes to hold some commentary on the names. -- but there is no comparable note field for names. Mitch: I do add comments in Source Details, but unless you print all of the sources, those don't print in, for example, a Descendent Narrative report. Also, the notes I want to record are frequently about my logic for why I settled on a particular name, or how I found it, or why a spelling change to the name may have occurred, or why a nickname or AKA was used.

I find that most of the problems are: 1)She put Of Cherokee, Iowa or something similar in the location. There is no County called Of Cherokee. How is the best way to change this? I notice there is the preposition that you can change in the Master Location List. Would I make a location titled Prep: Of and then put the location? I am concerned if I do this, when look at the person's data, I won't know if it means In Cherokee or Of Cherokee. 2) Other entries she put Cherokee?, Iowa There is not a County called Cherokee?. I am assuming she meant Did they come from Cherokee? Possibly, but not sure Is there a better way to data input that so it won't be on the County Verification list?

RE: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
Hi Jill, if I am reading your first question correctly the word of appears with the address in the location box and you want to get rid of the word of, if this is the case then you can go to the top of your screen and select searchsearch and replace, in the find where box click the button on the right side and scroll down then select Lists-Location; in the Find What box enter of without the ; in the Replacement Text box leave ths blank, now click the start button. The search and replace screen will come up, when is locates a location with the word of in it make sure that the replacement line reads what you want before you click the replace button because some locations may start with Of in them, an example is Offaly, Ireland. You would not want it to read faly, Ireland. I hope this works for you.

Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
I would not change the Of Cherokee entries just because there was no county called Of Cherokee.The Of means that the person lived there at some point, but whether she was born and/or died there was not known when the entry was made.For instance, you might find a person on a census record for a particular place, but have no source as to where she was born or died. For people whose actual place of birth or death is known, leave out the Of. But if you take it out for across the board, it degrades the accuracy of the data. There have been discussions before on trying to change the preposition in the location list. There doesn't seem to be a good way to do it. As to the question mark, it probably means that your mother did not have a source for that location, but thought it was right. Some people enter Prob Cherokee, when there is some uncertainty about the location. I would not let the county verification tool or the location list take over your effort to have a reasonably accurate record. Jill King wrote: I have inherited my Mother's genealogy.

Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
Hi Alice, I got three responses. Yours was the closest to what I am looking for but not exactly. I am aware that of means at some point they were there. For instance, we may not know a person was born in a particular place, but we know they were from that area. If I put it in as , Of Cherokee, Iowa, shows up on the County Verifier as not a valid place. Possibly the best thing to do would be to change it to be of, [county name], state or of , ,[county name], state to indicate that I do not know the town. Then it would no longer be listed as an problem in the County Verifier. What do you think? Regarding my second question. I believe my mother's intention when putting Cherokee?, Iowa in the location, was that she thought they may have been there, but wasn't sure. This is the case with several county names (and towns), not just Cherokee. I used Cherokee as an example. So if you think someone is from a certain place, but not sure, how is the best way to indicate that in the location box, so it does not come up as a problem in the County Verifier. Or is there a better way to indicate you are not sure? Thank you for your thoughts and assistance.

Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
I was told that my father-in-law was born in Cherokee territory but as the years passed and I got more proficient with genealogy, I found him in the census and to have been born in Pratt City, Pratt County, Kansas and until I found out the truth I had him listed as of Cherokee territory and I did it as an update so that my original find would still show [[I like seeing where I have been]] Hope this helps Thank you so much The Lord walks with me today Love Sandra Duncan - Original Message - From: frankanedc To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2007 12:57 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification I would not change the Of Cherokee entries just because there was no county called Of Cherokee.The Of means that the person lived there at some point, but whether she was born and/or died there was not known when the entry was made.For instance, you might find a person on a census record for a particular place, but have no source as to where she was born or died. For people whose actual place of birth or death is known, leave out the Of. But if you take it out for across the board, it degrades the accuracy of the data. There have been discussions before on trying to change the preposition in the location list. There doesn't seem to be a good way to do it. As to the question mark, it probably means that your mother did not have a source for that location, but thought it was right. Some people enter Prob Cherokee, when there is some uncertainty about the location.

John, Displaying 6 additional tags in the Family View simply adds clutter without function. Secondly, tags are temporary, reusable, definable by the user and if you made them permanent what happens when you use up the 9 tags?

Re: [LegacyUG] Notes for Name fields
Hi Mike (and list), I agree that there are times when it seems appropriate to add a note about a name specifically, and I think this functionality would be good to have. But in lieu of that, you could add to the General Notes and put a paragraph about the name. That would come out on the Descendent Narrative report. Arthur Rogers was known to me as Uncle Stub. I never got an explaination from others in the family about why he was called Stub, but I suspect the reason is that there was another Arthur Rogers (who would have been HIS Uncle Arthur) in the family Something like that??

Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
Hi Jill, I don't let the County Verifier drive how I enter my place names. In fact I found it so annyoing I am not using it at all just now. Like you I inherited someone else's genealogy and there was a lot of what I call freehand in it, like near Eulala or west of North Platt. Research has allowed me to pin down some of those broadly brushed locations. In the meantime I am leaving them just as they were in the original researcher's notes. Later on when I am more certain of locations I may enlist the help of the County Verifier. Your mother did the best she could to assign a location, and if I were you I would not change that very much. She may have had certain meanings to how she entered the data. Do you see a pattern in the use of the question marks, or do you think she just randomly used them to indicate she was unsure? If you think it is random, then for the time being I would make a place name called of , , Cherokee, Iowa as you suggested and use that as the place name for all the uncertain place names of that location, especially if it is not clear whether she was referring to the town of Cherokee, or the county of Cherokee. The use of commas as place holders for the town name will be very useful later on when you begin to make full use of the Locations Master List. Once you get your data base cleaned up you can go to work on all those who have been assigned of , , Cherokee, Iowa or any of the other locations where your mother was unsure. I absolutely think use of the word of to indicate uncertainty is the way to go. -- Alice - Original Message - From: Jill King To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: 5/24/2007 3:09:08 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification Hi Alice, I got three responses. Yours was the closest to what I am looking for but not exactly. I am aware that of means at some point they were there. For instance, we may not know a person was born in a particular place, but we know they were from that area. If I put it in as , Of Cherokee, Iowa, shows up on the County Verifier as not a valid place. Possibly the best thing to do would be to change it to be of, [county name], state or of , ,[county name], state to indicate that I do not know the town. Then it would no longer be listed as an problem in the County Verifier. What do you think? Regarding my second question. I believe my mother's intention when putting Cherokee?, Iowa in the location, was that she thought they may have been there, but wasn't sure. This is the case with several county names (and towns), not just Cherokee. I used Cherokee as an example. So if you think someone is from a certain place, but not sure, how is the best way to indicate that in the location box, so it does not come up as a problem in the County Verifier.

Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
This is probably not what you think that you want but here goes anyway. I once had a pile of pictures to scan into my computer and I actually thought that I would never get it done but I just started with the first picture and went at it one by one and in what seemed like 4 short months I was done. I might add that in October 198 I had a massive stroke that pretty much paralyzed most of my left side. I never hardly ever give up on things. Then shortly after I had issues with LEGACY and my computer at least 3 crash times and the locations were in such a mess that I decided to go through them one by one until all were EXACTLY as I wanted each and every one. I knew that if I wanted it a certain way, I would have to do it one by one until it got done it took me six months besides the other non computer stuff that filled my time, but I now have the perfect location list [[FOR ME]] and I could not be happier, my motto is whatever it takes.

Hi Sherry, I use [for example] probably Oakland County, Michigan [I know they died in Michigan, and I think probably was in Oakland County]. This triggers the county verifier. If I was to change the Master Location wouldn't it change everyone that I know for sure was died , Oakland County, Michigan? I think I once tried this and that is what happened.

Re: [LegacyUG] Notes for Name fields
Mike, Since you are talking about variations to names, I use the AKA option. I do this for any variation to a name and then I add the source for the variation together with notes in the comments section. It sounds like you want something different, but that is how I handle it. I agree printing is an issue with this method.

But in lieu of that, you could add to the General Notes and put a paragraph about the name. That would come out on the Descendent Narrative report. Arthur Rogers was known to me as Uncle Stub. I never got an explaination from others in the family about why he was called Stub, but I suspect the reason is that there was another Arthur Rogers (who would have been HIS Uncle Arthur) in the family Something like that??

Re: [LegacyUG] U.S. County Verification
Jill, After I inherited a genealogy done like that, I moved the of Placename to a residence event, and did not leave it in the birth or death fields. This way when I print a report, it shows she lived there. For your question mark locations, you might consider doing something like this. Move the location to a residence event, then edit the sentence wording for that particular individual's event only to add the word maybe or probably, so it would say She probably resided in Placename. If it is a birth location, this is trickier, because you don't want wrong information perpetuated. Since my whole goal for my data is to (a) output results to a book and (b) share the basic data online at Rootsweb's WorldConnect for others to look for connections, I would probably leave the birth location empty and add a birth note that would say She was probably born in Placename, but her birth record has not yet been found. I don't publish my notes to my Worldconnect tree. Hope these ideas might get you thinking of other ways to handle the data.

RE: [LegacyUG] Suggestion for future feature amendment
I would challenge that they add clutter, they are very very small and there is lots of room - they show all 9 on the edit screen for the individual. But of course you are correct, they are not necessarily to be permanent - I choose to use Tag 1 to represent related' and tag 2 for all my web page exportees (Tag 1 - Tag 3) (Tag 3 living Tag 1s:-) ) Tag 3 for Privates, and then I use the rest varibably when I am looking for people who do not appear in a particular source that should (i.e. alive in 1841 but not noted as using that source :-)) Works for me anyway, but I'd still like to see them all :-) Regards Mel Morris Burlington, Ontario http://www.melmorrisfamilytree.com/ www.melmorrisfamilytree.com Try out Legacy Family Tree today!

Re: [LegacyUG] Suggestion for future feature amendment
Glenn, I guess I expressed myself rather badly. What I meant was although I would *never* wish to show nine tags there have been/are occasions when more than three would be useful. I totally agree about clutter and was really suggesting a default of three, as now, but with the option of being able to show one or two more if needed.
