RE: [LegacyUG] Locations--(W)VA
Actually, this doesn't help. What chronology entries are you talking about? Are you talking about creating your own timeline?

In one instance, in Kentucky, in 1817, my ancestor died in New Liberty, Gallatin County. In 1819 Owen County was created from four counties, but New Liberty was split in half, his portion stayed in Gallatin. In 1820 Census, his widow was found in Gallatin paying taxes. In 1821, Gallatin gave portions (including rest of New Liberty area) to Owen County. In 1821, she has left Tax lists of Gallatin and joined Owen County. It was very confusing until I found that the portion of New Liberty they had lived in was renamed in the 1850s? as Wheatley. Before that, in 1830, the family moved in 3 groups over 4 years to Indiana. They never learned (?) the place they lived, was no longer called New Liberty. Everyone in the family, to this day, is still calling the homestead as in New Liberty. Imagine my confusion and frustration when we went to visit it, 1500 miles, and were searching twenty miles away from where the place actually was. I have created matching Chronology entries stating this, so they can be added into any report on this family which might be a person needing the tax list, probate stuff, but if person doesn't need this, I can easily not print paragraphs of info. (No deleting, just unticking.) I was going to PDF it, but am having problems unrelated with my printer at the moment. I had planned on PDF to insert to this, but will fix later. Hope this helps. I have created a grouping of each state my family is in, to pick and choose which needs to be there each time. The land mentioned above, was included in about a dozen counties in Virginia, then 8 counties in Kentucky. I have not yet found all records in the various counties, so am not sure what my count will be. Rich in LA CA --- M.

Re: [LegacyUG] Locations--(W)VA
Dev wrote As far as Legacy is concerned, I don't think Legacy treats (W)VA and VA any differently. At least I haven't been able to duplicate Pat's problem. Maybe Pat could be more specific about which descendant report is the problem (Descendant Chart, Descendants Book Report, Descendant Narrative Book Report, etc.). Well, I haven't been able to duplicate the problem either. l've just tried two descendant reports (one a .pdf from reports, all reports, book reports, descendants) the other, just clicking on the Descendant tab in family view, and choosing a .txt file and both included W(VA) without a problem!! Sometimes I think writing to Legacy UG is similar to calling a mechanic when you have a strange auto problem -- the problem seems to solve itself without anybody doing anything that is different. Thanks for everybody's input anyway -- and I appreciated the various ideas about how they handle changing county boundaries.
