Hi Allen,

	Did you per chance do this and I missed it? I was 
interested in how you did this.

Thanks,

Interesting - you should be getting the correct URL with that build and 

After resetting the search file and folder. 

 

If I email the link, then it's going to get broken and you'll have a mess on


Your hands. Please go to our website at 

http://WWW.LegacyFamilyTree.Com/Help.asp > Solutions by Error Description 

Where you'll find the solution and URL under Internet Searches section. 

It's also in the archives, but I'm sure the link is going to be broken 

There. 

 

Thanks for using Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] Question on Sourcing Help

[agh3rd]

Source and mention ANY info you find on anyone in your line. It may be 
of little interest to anyone now but at some point in the future 
someone will wish you had.


How many of us complain about not having info on their ancestors?
Don't let future decendants do the same about you AND your ancestors.

I have a question on sourcing. I have an old insurance claim document

sinking in it one of the two!! Any help would be much apprieciated as 
I've been asked is it worth the effort. I think any bit of material is 
worth the effort big or small but now it's got me questioning the

anyone but me, myself and I. 

Thanks for any help

If it is interesting to you but only to you, why not put it in an
event then mark the event as private so it will only show if you
request private data.

Re: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

I agree with Susan but I make two changes.
1. I start each person with a special character "=" to group them
instead of using the word "Person"
2. I have started putting the date at the beginning of the Detail

Re: [LegacyUG] Grandaugher without parents?

[John Carter]

There can be a large difference between how the Census was *supposed* to
be taken and how each census taker actually *did* the field work ;-)

I'm only familiar with the US censuses, but I know that the census takers
did *not* always verify who *lived* in the house versus who was *in* the
house the day of the census.  My wife has at least two ancestors who were
counted twice in pre-1900 censuses; in each case, the person was counted
once at home and once at a grandparent's house on a different day.  My
maternal grandparents were counted twice in the 1920 Census - two census
takers covered part of the same block.

Unfortunately, having someone listed as a family member may or may not
mean that they lived in that house.

I have a very similar situation. My great great grandmother's sister 
crawled into a hole and took the hole with her...vanished into thin air.
In the course of trying to track her down, I located her death 
certificate  that had"her granddaughter" listed as the reporter of 
informationwhich was very interesting since, although I had her 
marriage recorded, I had no children...so this is what I did. For the 
granddaughter I created a father for her called ...and I quote"Father 
or Mother {[possible James Shearer descendant]]"(to keep me from 
accidentally merging him...)and then married him off to a woman named 
"Father or Mother."
To the couple Father or Mother and Father or Mother I add the name of 
the granddaughter...If I ever find out which one is this girl's 
parent and which of the two is a descendant, I can just change their 
name..and if it's the woman, I can change parents really 
easily...I'll have to get back to you on whether my aunt had a girl 
or a boy...but at least her grandchild is documented.

[LegacyUG] Question on Sourcing Help

Hi listers,
I have a question on sourcing.  I have an old insurance claim document from 
my partners grand-dad and it gives a  policy #  and amount. There are a 
couple of letters that go with it and an envelope and I think it's an 
interesting piece of of matereal.  Question is though is it worth sourceing 
something like this.  I'm trying really hard to come to grips with this 
sourcing thing and it is slowly sinking in or I am sinking in it one of the 
two!!  Any help would be much apprieciated as I've been asked is it worth 
the effort.  I think any bit of material is worth the effort big or small 
but now it's got me questioning the relevance and effort of soucing somethng 
that has no real interest to anyone but me, myself and I.

Thanks for any help

Re: [LegacyUG] Grandaugher without parents?

[Cathy]

Hi Richard,

Without further evidence, I wouldn't assume that the children weren't 
real grandchildren. You appear to be indicating that you know all of 
the head's children - but children aren't always home on census 
night. My great grandfather and some of his siblings weren't home in 
the 1841 census. He was only 8 at the time.  If the Head is 60, his 
eldest child is probably much older than 20. The wife could be a second wife.


To link known grandchildren, create a new child or children for the 
head. I haven't been very consistent in what I call them. Sometimes 
"Placeholder child", "unknown daughter", "unknown child", etc


Cheers,
Cathy

Re: [LegacyUG] Printing >1 photo from Photo Gallery in Report

[Cathy]

Hi Linda,

The only way to print multiple photos is to attach them to events.
This actually allows you to say more about the photo or the occasion 
when the photo was taken.
eg: Attach your Dad's military photo to an event detailing his 
military service.


I would attach the wedding photo and the older photo of your parents 
to Marriage Events and keep those individual photo spots for photos 
of individuals. I only put more than one person there if the only 
photo I have of someone is a group photo and it is too difficult to 
crop out just the one head shot.


Cathy

I have Legacy 6.0 Deluxe Edition.

I would like to print more than one photo from the photo gallery in 
a report.  It seems that only one photo can be tagged to print in 
the photo gallery.


For example, for my parents, I have a wonderful military photo of my 
dad, a wedding photo and a photo of my parents when they are older.


I can attach one photo to my dad and one photo to my mom.  That 
leaves one other photo.  I understand that the photos attached for 
the Marriage Information cannot be printed out on reports yet.  I 
read on the legacy website that this is planned in a future enhancement.


I also read a series of posts that said to create an event and 
attach the photo there.  Is there any other methods of  getting the 
3rd photo to print in a report?


I am sorry if this is a repeat of previous posts, but I want to make 
sure I have not missed anything.  I have scanned hundreds of photos, 
named them and organized them in file folders by family group (HUGE 
JOB).  I have just begun attaching them and do not want to get too 
far and then have to go back and fix/redo it.


Thank you in advance for any suggestions or help in this matter.
Linda

Re: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

[Susan Daily]

I'm more of a lumper, but I make each individual person a source. Then
in the details, that might be an email, or telephone call, or personal
conversation, etc. I give the full description (i.e. "Telephone call
with Susan Daily on 4 Jul 2007; two pages of handwritten notes") in
the source detail. But since I am a lumper, I start each person's name
with "Person - " so that they all line up together.

I may have missed this, but also in regard to this, if you Left mouse

Re: [LegacyUG] Grandaugher without parents?

[Richard Hallford]

Thanks Mary. Re these "Grandchildren", I agree that they are part of the
family. In fact in later census (cenci?) the female granddaughter is still
with the famiy head, thirty years later. However, just taking the age of the
femal, 8yrs old and that the eldest of the "sibling" in the rest of the
family is 20, it is unlikely that the "granddaughter" belongs to any of the
Heads children. The head being 60, probably not him either. So the parents
had to be outside the family, possibly a brother or sisters child. Place of
birth is all exactly the same throughout the whole family, except for the
wife, although Im finding that census data for 1800's can be dodgy.
Enumerators may have just dittoed that one.
For those interested. I have found that on findmypast.com, you can search
the 1881 census for free, but more importantly, can search by address. So if
you know the address of someone in a Census, you can have a look at there
neighbors. I did that and low and behold, one of the grandchildren surnames
appeared a few doors down! Not conclusive evidence I know, but food for
thought.
However, I dont know what you meand by "create ghost children". How do you
do that? Probably just my inexperience with Legacy, but as I dont know the
grandparents, how do I enter them. Just as "Unknown grandparents"?
Kindest regards, Richard Hallford

[LegacyUG] Adoptions

[TH]

Sometimes the church that a child was baptised in isn't aware that the child
was ultimately adopted and, if you're lucky, might provide copies of the
baptismal certificate or record. That is what happened with regard to a new
found cousin that I was trying to assist. After her adopted mother passed
away, she had managed to get a hold of the adoption papers. With her
birthdate and mother's name (maiden), I was able to contact the local
Catholic church rectory. They were able to provide a copy of the baptismal
certificate as they had never been advised that the child had been adopted
out, even though the adoption had been handled through Catholic Charities in
a nearby city.

There is more to tell...including being there when two sisters met for the
first time in their 50s, but that would be considered off-topic to some on
this list ;-)

Interesting - you should be getting the correct URL with that build and
after resetting the search file and folder.

If I email the link, then it's going to get broken and you'll have a mess on
your hands.  Please go to our website at
http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp > Solutions by Error Description
where you'll find the solution and URL under Internet Searches section.
It's also in the archives, but I'm sure the link is going to be broken

 I have a question about adoption. I don't know how long it's been going on,
but I just asked a client for legal proof that the child was adopted (and
she can therefore sign for him). To my surprise I got a birth certificate
with only her name on it (as mother). The biologic parents names were
removed! That would make it hard to track genetic background if she didn't
know who the biologic parents were. But I guess that's also a privacy issue.

Re: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

[Pat Hickin]

"Personal Conversation" or "Interviews" I believe are a TYPE of source, not 
a source.  The individual interview and/or your summation of it would be the 
source, together with the date, time, place, and how the info was recorded 
(taped,video,notes--at the time or when) and where the record is located 
(repository) make up the source.

I have stories and information that is being relayed
to me via word of mouth by varying people in the
family.
My disclaimer is that I am doing family HISTORY, not
genealogy in it's pure form.

Anyway, how do you all cite this in Legacy? Do I make
one master source titled something like "Personal
Conversation" and link all instances to that, with
details being about who told me what for each
instance, or do I create master sources for each
person?
For instance I want to document stories my grandmother
told me before her passing, so my source is G Lockey.
I sat with my mother and got some stories from her,
and that source would be J Ratcliff.

The younger generations will actually write things
down for me, so that I have a source document, but the
older generations won't, they rely on telling the
stories.

Thoughts?

Dave,

I tried responding to your email to Support this morning.

Comcast is bouncing our emails. I checked into this and it showed that we
weren't on their two spam blocker lists so I don't know why we're still
being bounced.

If you could check with Comcast about why LegacyFamilyTree.com is being
bounced, we'd appreciate it!  They seem to like input from their customer
better than the senders!

The bounce message they're sending out is

Reason: 550 209.139.208.142 blocked by ldap:ou=rblmx,dc=comcast,dc=net ->

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Question...

[Alice Hawrilenko]

I list them as separate sources. As you have already noticed the information 
from each source can vary. The purpose of sources is to verify the accuracy 
of the information. For example. My g-grandfather Wm was a member of Liberty 
Church so Liberty Church is entered in as a Master Source.
He is buried in Liberty Cemetery I learned this from an on-line source so I 
list the source of the information as the on-line repository.
I then visited the cemetery and took pictures. I list myself as a primary 
source and use that to catalogue the pictures.
If the pictures had come from the on-line site I would have used that as the 
source for the pictures.
I have not yet used Liberty Church as a master source because to the best of 
my knowledge no one has found the old records from that church if there are 
any old records. But I keep the Church as a master source to indicate that I 
have checked in there.

What do people do when they have several different repositories for the 
same information. For example: I have Cemeteries & Churches list under one 
master list (yes, I'm a lumper). But some of the cemetery information is 
from on-line databases (with or without picture) & some is from me 
personally visiting the cemetery. I have been using the detail to 
differentiate, but is there a better way? What do other's do?

Re: [LegacyUG] Renaming Pictures

I did a quick test and it looks like if you do the rename from the

[LegacyUG] Printing >1 photo from Photo Gallery in Report

[linda kolinski]

I have Legacy 6.0 Deluxe Edition.
   
  I would like to print more than one photo from the photo gallery in a report. 
 It seems that only one photo can be tagged to print in the photo gallery.
   
  For example, for my parents, I have a wonderful military photo of my dad, a 
wedding photo and a photo of my parents when they are older.
   
  I can attach one photo to my dad and one photo to my mom.  That leaves one 
other photo.  I understand that the photos attached for the Marriage 
Information cannot be printed out on reports yet.  I read on the legacy website 
that this is planned in a future enhancement.
   
  I also read a series of posts that said to create an event and attach the 
photo there.  Is there any other methods of  getting the 3rd photo to print in 
a report?  
   
  I am sorry if this is a repeat of previous posts, but I want to make sure I 
have not missed anything.  I have scanned hundreds of photos, named them and 
organized them in file folders by family group (HUGE JOB).  I have just begun 
attaching them and do not want to get too far and then have to go back and 
fix/redo it.
   
  Thank you in advance for any suggestions or help in this matter.
  Linda

Re: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

[Bruce Jones]

I am a lumper, so I started with just one source "Personal
Communication" for all emails and phone calls that provided me with
information.  However as I go more and more of these (several hundred
from over 75 persons), I decided to create a Master Source for each
individual.  In addition to not having one source with so many
Detailed Source entries, I like the way it reads now.  However, making
this change entailed quite a bit of work.

Based on my experience, I would recommend you create at least a
separate Master Source for each individual even if you are a lumper.
If you later decide you want them combined, Legacy provides the tool
to do this (it would be VERY easy to do if you put the persons name in
the Source Detail when you create each Detail Source entry so you
don't have to add it before combining).

My two cents worth.

RE: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

[Janis Gilmore]

Well, as a splitter I source each individual source of information.

For instance:
Informal conversations with Elizabeth (Bennett) Welker (Mountain
View, Missouri), from 1965 to the present (2007); regarding the Welker and
Bennett families of Some County, Somewhere.

For the filing title I would use "Bennett, Elizabeth - (Welker)" because the
maiden name is the primary name by which I think of her, and the primary
name used for her genealogically.

In the source detail, I would put the individual story, and maybe the
circumstances surrounding the telling of it, and possibly even a more
specific date. I do the same thing with info from my parents, grandparents,
whomever.

If it was a formal interview with someone (as in, I called to ask them if I
could ask them some questions about the family, and had a list prepared), I
would do it more like this:

Interview, Elizabeth (Bennett) Welker (Mountain View, Missouri), 12
Dec 2005; regarding the Bennett and Welker families.

Then on the text page I would transcribe all of the notes.

Janis

Re: [LegacyUG] Renaming Pictures

[John Magyari]

Looks like each and every file has to be done individually.

I also noticed each time I select to manually find (Browse for the file 
yourself) the 30 files I am sent to the
Default location of family files, instead of Default location of 
picture, sound, video files Picture Files which is the directory I would 
have thought I would have started in.
It would have been nice if whatever I last changed would have been 
remembered including the last file name selected considering I am going 
to change the same file 30 times.  I have to do 7 clicks each time, only 
210 clicks and I got through the whole process.


I have several Census files that I'd like to rename associated with many 
individuals, unfortunately my naming convents were not thought out when 
I first started,  maybe I'll wait until Version 7 comes out and see if 
there is possibly a Master List associated with pictures.
If there was a crc was associated with each of the images, then if files 
were renamed the first attempt in location could be to associate old 
name with new name if CRCs are identical.


thanks,
john

Similar to Masterlist where one can make a global change to certain

You can redirect Legacy to a file with a changed name this way:

Rename the file.  Then go to Options, Customise, Locations and click 
on Test All Multimedia Paths...


When the program discovers it can't file the picture by the old 
filename you will be offered several options, including Browse for the 
File Yourself.  Click on this and browse for the file with the new 
filename and select it and click Open.


Legacy will then ask you if you want to use this new filename and you 
click yes.


I don't know if Legacy will then automatically associate that new 
filename with *all* instances of the old one or not.  If it doesn't, 
you will find the correct folder opens each time you click Browse for

RE: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

[familyjesse]

I have both oral and written family histories, stories and such from various
sides of the family that are extremely different in background and origins.
I have used these sources for this:

First hand Information .  that would be me or members of my family
who were there, involved etc.

Family Records  historical records which I actually contain
in my hand but which could not be classified under another source: census,
baptismal records

Family Information, handed down . mostly word of mouth, some old
notes etc...

Since I am a lumper, I keep my sources general and use the event detail tab
to explain. 

Under details for the event I would add who the source was, where it came
from, dates, various information that I might have. In some cases I would
actually copy text and put it in the detail text and then add my comments. I
frequently use the comments section to explain how witnesses are related to
the family, who else attended and my own comments.

I have stories and information that is being relayed
to me via word of mouth by varying people in the
family. 
My disclaimer is that I am doing family HISTORY, not
genealogy in it's pure form.

Anyway, how do you all cite this in Legacy? Do I make
one master source titled something like "Personal
Conversation" and link all instances to that, with
details being about who told me what for each
instance, or do I create master sources for each
person?
For instance I want to document stories my grandmother
told me before her passing, so my source is G Lockey.
I sat with my mother and got some stories from her,
and that source would be J Ratcliff.

The younger generations will actually write things
down for me, so that I have a source document, but the
older generations won't, they rely on telling the
stories.

Thoughts?

I have a master source named Family Members & Personal Knowledge and I 
will then use the Source Details to add something like "Joe Bloggs - 
Oral" or "Jenny M Benson - Recollection".  You might also want to 
include the date when the information was given to you, if you know it.


Incidentally, I would actually use the full name and RIN of the person 
quoted in the Source Details so that anyone else looking at my Sources 
would understand exactly who was being quoted.

Re: [LegacyUG] Citing Source: Person to Person

[John Carter]

I think this may be a "lumper" versus "splitter" topic ;-)

You could either lump all stories under a source of "
Conversation" or split them out by " Conversation ". 
If the source is a living person, you might want the date/place if you
need clarification or details of a specific conversation.  "Do you
remember  of  you told me at 
on ?" is more likely to connect to the specific
conversation than "Do you remember  of ?"

However, the second form might get you another  because it's
entirely possible that there are multiple stories about "Grandpa and the
mule".

I have some things from conversations that are not in the Master Source,
but in individual notes with the citation and it's all in [[private]].

Re: [LegacyUG] Renaming Pictures

[Ron Taylor]

Jenny,

You could use a master source and have the picture attached to it.  Then 
cite that source on all people involved.  If the picture name changes, you 
only need to fix the master source.

Re: [LegacyUG] Grandaugher without parents?

[Mary Young]

Hi, Richard
I feel these grandchildren are part of the family and must be linked.
Create two "ghost" children for the grandparents. Mark them as
"unknown gender" and attach a grandchild to each. When you have more
info. you can put name and gender to the ghosts, or merge with known
children.
It's worth remembering that (depending on society/country/timeframe),
the grandson with a different surname may be a daughter's illegitimate
child, using his father's name. For instance, this was commonly done
in 19th century Scotland.

Re: [LegacyUG] Grandaugher without parents?

[MJMethod]

 
 
I  have several such situations. I create an Unknown given name under the 
Surname,  with an explanation in the Notes, then create the Grandson or 
Granddaughter,  again with an explanation in the Notes.
At some point you will (hopefully) figure out the  relationship. Then it 
is a simple process to either a) convert "Unknown" to the  name of a newly 
discovered child, or b) move the Grandson/Granddaughter to their  correct 
parent 
and then delete the Unknown.

Is there an easy way to do the following

I had a shipping manifest which I created a jpg lets say 1931.jpg
Assigned it one by one to the 30 individuals using add pictures (I 
submitted enhancement request to see if tag feature could be applied to 
pictures)
Now I discovered that I misspelled the name of the picture it should be 
1930.jpg
I rename it,  now all 30 individuals the picture was assigned to can't 
find the picture.


Similar to Masterlist where one can make a global change to certain 
information,


can I do this once without going back in 30 times and changing the 
name?


You can redirect Legacy to a file with a changed name this way:

Rename the file.  Then go to Options, Customise, Locations and click on 
Test All Multimedia Paths...


When the program discovers it can't file the picture by the old filename 
you will be offered several options, including Browse for the File 
Yourself.  Click on this and browse for the file with the new filename 
and select it and click Open.


Legacy will then ask you if you want to use this new filename and you 
click yes.


I don't know if Legacy will then automatically associate that new 
filename with *all* instances of the old one or not.  If it doesn't, you 
will find the correct folder opens each time you click Browse for the 
File Yourself so it is very quick to find renamed file.

Clarification.
You can already print Marriage Event pictures in reports.

You currently can't print the picture associated with the actual marriage.


Ah, thank you!  Sorry for confusing the issue.  I had forgotten about 
that distinction.
