[LegacyUG] mass To-Do

2008-08-03 Thread JLB
Does Legacy have a way to do mass-To-Do-ing?  Such as in having a long 
list of people for whom I need to search a certain year's census record 
and I could give them all the same To-Do with a quick flourish?

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Location List

2008-08-03 Thread RICHARD SCHULTHIES
I reccommend fixing it first, then merging. That is
the easiest. You might want to undo it, having two
files, repair the 2nd one. Once the member's fields
match yours, then merge.

Syble, 

I use a Garmin eTrex Vista HCx with the 2008 topo map. You should be
able to get one for under $200. Also a Garmin Etrex Legend is good for
under $120. Units have similar accuracy in open areas using the WAAS
satellites. It does take a more expensive and sensitive unit if your
view of the sky is obstructed by trees or buildings. 

I cannot believe all the folks that feel that it is their responsibility
to police this newsgroup. GPS coordinates are obviously an important and
new aspect to genealogy. How we use input and distribute this
information using Legacy is not only only of interest to other users but
also to the programmers.

John, 

I do something similar as I have many relatives in rural cemetery's in
Georgia. 

In the Burial Location I list the city (if there is one), County, State,
country. 

In a Cemetery Event/Fact I list the Cemetery name, address and GPS
location of the Cemetery in the Event address. If I think there may be a
problem finding the cemetery I list the diving directions to the
Cemetery. 

In the Cemetery Event/Fact notes for the person list the Actual GPS
location of the grave or group of graves. Graves within a 20-30 foot
area would have the same GPS location. This way the locations actually
print on reports. 

It's all well and good that we can zoom around on Virtual Earth and log
the GPS locations and addresses in Legacy but in my opinion the
important thing is to be able to print this information on reports to
pass on to family today and in the years to come. This is the reason I
am purchased an accurate GPS not just for graves but old home sites, the
community center where our family reunion was held for 50 years etc. 

IMHO

Some rural cemeteries in the US have no particular order and thus no

directions and pictures within the cemetery as well as a GPS location
(if

irregular areas within the larger overall space, each area with its own 

name.  They still use row/plot designations, but the rolling landscapes 

and curving roads sometimes make following a row difficult. 

My mother and maternal grandmother are buried in such a cemetery in

When you want to use a Bookmarked Source type, Click on Add a 
Source, then at the bottom of that screen (the Step 1 screen) under 
where it says "OR select one of your bookmarked source types:" there 
is a list. You will only see the top item on the list, but there are

Scroll to the one you want and click on it, then the Step 2 button

Pat:

I had the same question last week.  Here's the response that helped me.


You need to convert the decimal bits to minutes and seconds. Go to the
Master Location and click on the little calculator. You can convert the
decimal bits to minutes and seconds there.

Basically you take the decimal part of the long or lat and multiply by 60.
The whole number bit becomes the minutes. Then multiply the fractional part
by 60 and the whole number is the seconds

So 33.8504 is 33deg 51min 1.44 sec, so entered as 335101.44

Jack

I now use the calculator in Legacy and it is so easy!

"The latitude and longitude must be in the form of degrees, minutes and
seconds.  The degrees must be between 0 and 90, if a latitude, and between 0

The seconds can have up to three decimal places after it.  e.g.

I don't know how to translate it to get minutes and seconds to numbers < 60.

This is the first time  I've attempted to enter Lat and Long.

Can anyone give me some pointers?

[LegacyUG] Charting refresh problem

2008-08-03 Thread Keith Bage
This evening I have produced a Full Fan report for myself and at the time
one of my 3x great grandmothers was missing. I then added her (first name
only) to my database and refreshed the chart but she did not appear. I
changed chart types, increased # of generations and back etc. all to no
avail. I then closed the chart and re launched legacy charting to find she
was now there. It would therefore seem the refresh is not working. 

 

I'm using 7.0.118.

Re: [LegacyUG] GPS for Individual Graves locations

2008-08-03 Thread G Oliver
Syble,
I use a Garmin eTrex Vista HCx with the 2008 topo map. You should be able to
get one for under $200. Also a Garmin Etrex Legend is good for under $120.
Units have similar accuracy in open areas using the WAAS satellites. It does
take a more expensive and sensitive unit if your view of the sky is
obstructed by trees or buildings.
I cannot believe all the folks that feel that it is their responsibility to
police this newsgroup. GPS coordinates are obviously an important and new
aspect to genealogy. How we use input and distribute this information using
Legacy is not only only of interest to other users but also to the
programmers.

It sounds as though you have exactly the same problem as I had - and 
still have.  I did mention it here and Geoff said he was going to pass

heard anything from Luc since and I have not bothered to pursue the

Perhaps Support will see this thread and chime in!

Good lord ...

They are not based on what you decide either. Until you are employed by 
the folks at legacy you have no more basis than anyone else.


I always figure I am a guest of the owner of any list. If THEY decide 
something is off-topic - THEY will inform the list. If they don't, then 
it must be their decision something is on-topic. You can protest all you 
want - but you aren't a list owner, nor do YOU decide what the rules are.


If YOU have a problem, take it up with the folks who own the list. If 
they respond, then you get your wish. If they don't - then you must be 
wrong. Protesting to the rest of us or imposing your interpretation of 
the rules on the list does no good.


The proper forum for your complaints is in an email to the list owners.

Personally, I was rather enjoying the thread, looking at what GPS unit 
will work best with Legacy and its GPS perameters. I wish to extend my 
legacy use to its utmost and anything to save me money in buying the 
right type of GPS is very Legacy oriented to me.

says "OR select one of your bookmarked source types:" there is a list. 
You will only see the top item on the list, but there are miniature 
scroll bars to allow you to access the rest of the list. Scroll to the 
one you want and click on it, then the Step 2 button will be clickable.

So, the "slot" where the list should be is blank and you do not see the

sure it must be something exclusive to your set-up because, as I said, I 
am unable to replicate this.

TK, no one has a problem with discussions about recording GPS coordinates in 
Legacy.  That's the purpose of the list.   But when it goes farther than 
Legacy and starts doing such things as reviews of GPS units that it's 
clearly drifted off topic.Let's all remember that this isn't a general 
genealogy list.   It's a Legacy support list.  Please read the list rules 
(as the Legacy staff has recommended many, many times).I subscribe to 
many genealogy lists, some for a geographic area, some for a surname etc. 
Some of them are general genealogy lists and welcome anything to do with 
genealogy.   I don't expect to be able to post anything I want on any of 
those lists and just have the other subscribers endure.   I take my question 
or comment to the appropriate list where it's on topic.

A suggestion - if you do not think a post is "On Topic" and wish to
discuss this - REPLY OFF LIST to the person - but the chances of
changing anyone's mind is quite low.  This would allow the rest of us
will not have to read the childish exchanges that have been going on!

First, I think a message about the list rules is much more appropriate here
than a review of gps units.  

Yes, Legacy is certainly the one to be enforcing the list rules.   But
unfortunately they haven't been doing it very consistent lately.   And list
subscribers have been ignoring their warning when they do attempt it.   I
don't think Legacy's lack of list enforcement should be a signal to break
them all we want.  I don't enjoy posting about it but I also don't

RE: [LegacyUG] GPS for Individual Graves locations

2008-08-03 Thread Sheri Harris
Ron,

Thanks in advance for wanting to help me on this! The report I want is
fairly simple, at least in theory. I just need the name (married name of
married females), Birth/death date, Cemetery Name and the notes from the
cemetery event to print. I have created a cemetery event and am putting the
name of the cemetery in the description field, date of burial in the date
field, and then filled in the location field. Since I'm putting in some
detailed notes (GPS, section, description of the headstone, etc) in the
event's note field for each individual, I need that to print as well. I do
have pictures of the headstones attached to the event and it would be nice
to have the option to print them with the report. In other words, something
simple that I could send to family members. 

Here's what I did to get my report. I did a search and pulled up everyone
under a particular cemetery and then from that search list, under the
options, selected the married names. Then I went to run my "Event" report
and selected only those on the search list, it gives me most of what I need
for the report, however, it lists the married females twice, their maiden
name and married name, which is exactly what is on my search list, and I
didn't see the option to print pictures, or I missed it. 

I tried printing a report from the search list, customizing it to show the
cemetery, but it's not what I need. Again, the "Event" report seems to do
most of what I need.

When I try to tag individual people in my search list to narrow down only
the married names, I only have the option to tag all. I know I'm not doing
something right or I'm not using the right report/search. Or if Legacy 7
doesn't filter maiden names, what work arounds do you suggest?  

Thanks again for the help!
Sheri

Sheri,

Your second question is very much on topic! In version7 this is easy when
you have made your list of people (and if you do not know how to do this
please come back to us giving details of what you are looking for) you
should be on the Main List Screen - or if you are tagging manually then this
is the screen your require (View>Name List). Click on the Options button,
and at the top of the pop-up you will see "Include married names" - click it
then Print, selecting the options you require.

If you have version6, details on how to do this are given in the Blogs
section of my www. fergys website.

RE: [LegacyUG] GPS for Individual Graves locations

2008-08-03 Thread Dave
TK, no one has a problem with discussions about recording GPS coordinates in
Legacy.  That's the purpose of the list.   But when it goes farther than
Legacy and starts doing such things as reviews of GPS units that it's
clearly drifted off topic.Let's all remember that this isn't a general
genealogy list.   It's a Legacy support list.  Please read the list rules
(as the Legacy staff has recommended many, many times).I subscribe to
many genealogy lists, some for a geographic area, some for a surname etc.
Some of them are general genealogy lists and welcome anything to do with
genealogy.   I don't expect to be able to post anything I want on any of
those lists and just have the other subscribers endure.   I take my question
or comment to the appropriate list where it's on topic.

 

It isn't up to any of us, including yourself, to determine what we want to
be on topic even if you find it interesting.   And the solution isn't for
the disinterested to "just click on to the next topic and stop reading this
thread". It's very clear in the list rules - Legacy and its add-ons
ONLY!   All we have to do is follow the rules and stop trying to make them
what we want them to be.  Having a little consideration for the other
subscribers would be a nice first step.

Obviously a lot of us, including myself, are finding this thread not only
on-topic but also interesting and useful. Can't those of you who are
disinterested in using the space that Legacy created for recording GPS
coordinates (hopefully the best and most accurate they can be) just click on
to the next topic and stop reading this thread? Thank you to those who are
responding to the many questions about this subject!

With all due respect, the Legacy Staff has not been doing a very good job

I have the distinct feeling that the Legacy Staff is giving up on monitoring
the list for off topic posts, non text format posts, etc.  It seems to me
that they are admitting defeat and instead of addressing the problems they

Reviews and recommendations of various gps units are off topic here.   I'm
sure there would be some who would be willing to offer suggestions offline
so everyone on the list doesn't have to read them all.   Or there are other

RE: [LegacyUG] GPS for Individual Graves locations

2008-08-03 Thread Dave

Ron,

First, I think a message about the list rules is much more appropriate here
than a review of gps units.  

Yes, Legacy is certainly the one to be enforcing the list rules.   But
unfortunately they haven't been doing it very consistent lately.   And list
subscribers have been ignoring their warning when they do attempt it.   I
don't think Legacy's lack of list enforcement should be a signal to break
them all we want.  I don't enjoy posting about it but I also don't
appreciate others who feel they can totally ignore the rules and expect
everyone else to just ignore it.  I subscribed to this list for Legacy
support and nothing else (remember, just list the list rules state?).

Maybe if we all did more to stay on topic and keep others on topic we
wouldn't have this kind of discussion.

Dave

John,

I do something similar as I have many relatives in rural cemetery's in
Georgia.
In the Burial Location I list the city (if there is one), County, State,
country.
In a Cemetery Event/Fact I list the Cemetery name, address and GPS location
of the Cemetery in the Event address. If I think there may be a problem
finding the cemetery I list the diving directions to the Cemetery.
In the Cemetery Event/Fact notes for the person list the Actual GPS location
of the grave or group of graves. Graves within a 20-30 foot area would have
the same GPS location. This way the locations actually print on reports.

It's all well and good that we can zoom around on Virtual Earth and log the
GPS locations and addresses in Legacy but in my opinion the important thing
is to be able to print this information on reports to pass on to family
today and in the years to come. This is the reason I am purchased an
accurate GPS not just for graves but old home sites, the community center
where our family reunion was held for 50 years etc.

irregular areas within the larger overall space, each area with its own

When I create the "Family Group Web Page" - and go to the "Surname List" I

Where did the 1,589 extra people come from, or where did they go?

There are many US cemeteries that try to project a "nicer" image with
names on the order of "[cityname] Memorial Park".  These tend to have
irregular areas within the larger overall space, each area with its own
name.  They still use row/plot designations, but the rolling landscapes
and curving roads sometimes make following a row difficult.

My mother and maternal grandmother are buried in such a cemetery in
Tennessee and each grave location is in the general Notes (I haven't yet
entered locations for graves):
, Garden of Time, 139a - 2 -  N35.06.690  W89.52.392  Near
road.  Markers nearby: (left) Hill (Double) - (right) Graves (single -
2004)
, Garden of Time, 320b - 2  - N35.06.679  W89.52.361  Near
road, under tree.  Markers nearby (to right): Thompson (double) - Frank
Anderton - Madge Anderton

You cannot see either of these markers from the other location because of
the terrain.  Doing a search for the two plots as someone who had never
been to the site before took almost 30 minutes using the tiny map the
cemetery provides to visitors.

RE: [LegacyUG] Web Site / Legacy Home Page Discrepancies

2008-08-03 Thread Sheri Harris
Being a new user, not sure if this is right or not, but when I played around
with the web page for my family, I noticed that it included all the
alternative names for the individuals. For example, I have an William in my
family tree, but he was also known as Willie, Bill, Billy, along with the
variant spellings of his last name, McDonald, and all these showed up in the
name list. Took a while for me to figure out who all these "new" people were
in my tree. However, experienced and long time users may have a better
explanation.

Hello:
 
    I'm sitting here wondering how many people I have in the data base... on
the Legacy V7 program there is a "Home Page" next to "Family" page. 
Clicking on the home page reveals a statistical area which reports that I
have 19,812 individuals.
 
When I create the "Family Group Web Page" - and go to the "Surname List"
I find it reports that I have 21,401 individuals listed.
 
    Where did the 1,589 extra people come from, or where did they go?

Paul,

I am afraid that I cannot offer an explanation. I have just checked my Family 
Group Pages website, and the number of individuals in the Surname List agrees 
with the number given on the Legacy home page. 

I see no reason why the number in the Legacy Home Page should differ from that 
in Legacy General Information, indeed I would be amazed if it did, but have you 
had a look?

RE: [LegacyUG] GPS for Individual Graves locations

2008-08-03 Thread Dave
Syble, this is a list for the support of Legacy and its add-ons.Reviews
and recommendations of various gps units are off topic here.   I'm sure
there would be some who would be willing to offer suggestions offline so
everyone on the list doesn't have to read them all.   Or there are other
lists where it would be on topic.

John,

I do something similar as I have many relatives in rural cemetery's in
Georgia.
In the Burial Location I list the city (if there is one), County, State,
country.
In a Cemetery Event/Fact I list the Cemetery name, address and GPS location
of the Cemetery in the Event address. If I think there may be a problem
finding the cemetery I list the diving directions to the Cemetery.
In the Cemetery Event/Fact notes for the person list the Actual GPS location
of the grave or group of graves. Graves within a 20-30 foot area would have
the same GPS location. This way the locations actually print on reports.

It's all well and good that we can zoom around on Virtual Earth and log the
GPS locations and addresses in Legacy but in my opinion the important thing
is to be able to print this information on reports to pass on to family
today and in the years to come. This is the reason I am purchased an
accurate GPS not just for graves but old home sites, the community center
where our family reunion was held for 50 years etc.

Hi Paul,

I think you'll find that the Surname / Name list includes AKAs whereas the 
Home Page statistics is "individuals" regardless of how many name 
variations.  I think that's what I worked out when I found the same 
discrepancy as you some time back.

RE: [LegacyUG] GPS for Individual Graves locations

2008-08-03 Thread ronald ferguson

Sheri,

Your second question is very much on topic! In version7 this is easy when you 
have made your list of people (and if you do not know how to do this please 
come back to us giving details of what you are looking for) you should be on 
the Main List Screen - or if you are tagging manually then this is the screen 
your require (View>Name List). Click on the Options button, and at the top of 
the pop-up you will see "Include married names" - click it then Print, 
selecting the options you require.

If you have version6, details on how to do this are given in the Blogs section 
of my www. fergys website.
