The cemetery is Green Ridge two separate words.  I realize that legacy does
not have every cemetery but this is a big one and all of my ancestors this
problem does not occur and those cemeteries are very small.  Doesn't make

Actually, I believe Greenridge is correct. I posted that several days ago.
Legacy doesn't actually know the name of every cemetery in the country, does
it? I'm not sure this is pertinent to Marilyn's problem.

 No that isn't what I am talking about.  I have the name
 Green Ridge Cemetery
 by the person who died and everytime I get out of that
 particular person it
 says the cemetery does not exist.  This cemetery is very
 large in downtown
 Kenosha, WI.  It should be in your program.  What you told
 me did not make
 any sense to me.  I have gone into the name and put in
 decendent.  Then I
 don't know where to go from there.

 Ron,

 For some reason Legacy does not have the cemetery in
 Kenosha, WI.  When I
 put in the name and where they are buried it keeps telling
 me that there is
 no such cemetery.  The name of the cemetery is Green Ridge
 and it is in
 downtown Kenosha, WI.  It should be fixed in your program.

 And I've only just got up so my brain is not yet in
 gear, but I think the
 answer to your question is yes, at least to
 some extent.

 I think the default sentence for the description field is
 at [Desc]. Take
 the Residence Event as an example, it reads [He/She]
 at [Desc]. Without
 changing the default, only the contents of the Description
 field, it can be
 made to read eg. He resided at 'birth'
 , He resided at 'birth in London
 Hospital' , He resided at 'census'
 , where the bit in single quotes is
 what is included in the description field. These are not
 particularly good
 examples but, I think, make the point.

 If this is not what you meant please come back to us.

I doubt that Legacy has *any* Cemeteries in the Geo database! Unless the 
place has the exact same name as the Cemetery. Think about what you're 
trying to do. I wouldn't expect Legacy to know about my house, just as I 
wouldn't expect it to know about your problem.


As everyone has said: There is a world of difference between a Location

Also: Don't hi-jack threads. Learn the difference between replying to an

When you talk about something else totally unrelated, you confuse

Thanks for the response, but I am aware of Win4Lin and VMWare.  However, my

[LegacyUG] a problem with assigning sources

2008-09-25 Thread Michele Lewis


Here is the situation...

I have 5 children graves that have this information on their markers...

Daughter of (or son) Willie O.  Dora S. Lewis

Each child has a different source (same source, different detail) for all of 
their facts surrounding these markers (name, date of birth, date of death).


I am sourcing the AKAs for the mother and father.  When I assign the first 
child's source to the mother and father's AKA all is good.  When I try to 
add another child's source to the AKAs it won't take it.  Legacy thinks it 
is the same source even though the DETAIL is different.


The SOURCE is the cemetery that I went out and surveyed this morning.  The 
DETAIL is the individual child's name on the marker.


Legacy is just seeing the source and not the detail and won't assign the 
different sources to the one fact (the mother and father's AKA)

Elsie,

I played a little bit. Let's see if I am on the same page as you.

I went to Locations, highlighted (clicked on) one, clicked Combine, 
then used the arrow keys to navigate up and down the list. No 
additional clicking necessary until you get to the entry to Combine 
With. Hitting the enter key will also finish the Combine function.


Next I went to View/Master Lists/Address Lists/Events (or Mailing or 
Repository). I highlight (click on) an entry, then clicked on Combine 
the highlighted event address with another on in the list. At this 
point the arrow keys will not move the cursor up or down. However, 
when I click on the list ***again*** the arrow keys now move the 
cursor up and down so I can navigate to the appropriate entry and 
click on Highlight the Destination or hit the enter key.


Are you clicking on the address list a ***second time***? That was the 
only way I could get my arrow keys to work in the address lists. If 
you are not, try it and see if the arrow keys then work. If you are, 
then there is something different with your keyboard or computer or 
something. I don't believe there is any setting in Legacy to control 
how the arrow keys work in the various lists.


I never noticed the different behavior until I started playing around 
after your post. Possibly another little bug.

Welcome, Linda!

Please remember that Legacy is very flexible and that it allows you to do
things many different ways.  You may find many different suggestions from
different people on this list as topics are discussed.

I have ALL of my people in one database but there are others on this list
who have their family in one file and their spouse's family in another.  I
have 1 database for a number of reasons, mostly so that all of my son's
ancestors, aunts, uncles and cousins are in the same database that he is.
Otherwise, I would be in my family file plus my husband's to show that I am
his wife and vice-versa.  Our son, likewise, would have to be in both.  In
addition, you just never know where in your ancestry you might find that the
families have crossed over each other.  

In regards to two marriages, you assign the children to their BIRTH parents.
Additional marriages for the parents will result in the children being shown
as step or 1/2 children.

Hi
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask these questions.

I have started my family tree and I have possibly 130 people on it already 
and now I am just thinking have I done it all wrong should I fave different 
family trees or have everyone on one which I do should I have done one 
for my mother's family  - her father and and then one for her mother  and 
then one for each of my father's parents.help..

Also when there are two marraiges involved do you include the children on 
both and designate which are step  or do you have to 

Thanks

 I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask these questions.

Yes, it is!  However ...

 I have started my family tree and I have possibly 130 people on it already
 and now I am just thinking have I done it all wrong should I fave
 different
 family trees or have everyone on one which I do should I have done one
 for my mother's family  - her father and and then one for her mother  and
 then one for each of my father's parents.help..


... this has been discussed many times on this list and you may wish to
look through the archives to see what everyone has had to say, but the
short answers is No, keep them all in one tree.

 Also when there are two marraiges involved do you include the children on
 both and designate which are step  or do you have to 


You enter the children one, each under the correct pair of parents, but
you can then opt to show half-children when viewing each family.  I
suggest you look up Half children or Step children in the Help index
(both take you to the same page).

RE: [LegacyUG] a problem with assigning sources

2008-09-25 Thread ronald ferguson

Jenny,

I haven't got time to check this out at the moment, so I'm going, off memory. I 
suspect what Michele may be doing is to enter the death then the the source 
with child 1 in the detail, then clicking the blue line agin and entering 
child2 and repeating. I think in this way only one source will be recorded.

If it is first saved before entering the second  and saved each time before 
repeating I suspect it will be ok.

I doubt that Legacy has *any* Cemeteries in the Geo database! Unless the 
place has the exact same name as the Cemetery. Think about what you're 
trying to do. I wouldn't expect Legacy to know about my house, just as I 
wouldn't expect it to know about your problem.

As everyone has said: There is a world of difference between a Location

Also: Don't hi-jack threads. Learn the difference between replying to an

When you talk about something else totally unrelated, you confuse

These five children (the last entry is for a set of twins that appear on a

I want to put these 4 citations as sources for the AKA Willie O. Lewis and 
the AKA Dora S. Lewis (their full names are recorded in the name blank. 
These are AKAs for them).


When I assign the first source to the AKA it takes it just fine.  When I 
copy the next citation and try to assign it to the same AKA it won't take 
it.  It is just like when you try to assign the same source to fact in your

I just tried that and it will won't let me assign more than one source to a 
single AKA.  It is weird because it is only the case when the SOURCE is the

added completely different sources to a single AKA entry and it will record

I have been using Legacy for a few months now and was doing backups. I 
read that I should try a restore, the data file worked fine.


I went to try the multimedia file. I clicked on the zip file to check it 
out, the picture folder was there but there were only a couple of the 
files from the folder in it.


I had set up the Pictures folder the way I did when using Family Tree 
Maker V16, a folder for each family group of pictures in the Picture 
folder. I have about 25 folders in the picture folder, about 4 gigbytes.
  I am using Vista so I manually zipped up the pictures folder and then 
clicked on it and all the 25 subfolders were there.


Is there a problem with Legacy zipping up the Pictures folder if there are 
sub-folders in it?  The sub folders it backed up were random, not the 
first 3 or last three.

Re: [LegacyUG] Help - new user

2008-09-25 Thread Wendy Howard

Hi Linda,

You've had some good answers so far.  :-)  My recommendation on the 
files question would be to keep one file, to save duplication.  If you 
want to share only a part of your tree with someone else later on, it is 
possible to do that without having to send everything.


Did you know that there is some tutorial help on the Legacy web site?  
It includes a free online video that covers some of the basics.  See 
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/Learn2UseLegacy.asp


At my local genealogy group meeting this week we watched this video, and 
even people who have been using the program for several years learned 
something new, so it is well worth a look in my opinion.  (You get to 
see a picture of Geoff, and hear his voice, too!)


Hope this helps.  :-)

Kind Regards,
Wendy Howard

Re: [LegacyUG] Help - new user

2008-09-25 Thread Erin Bradshaw

Linda,

Well, if you set up separate family files, I hope your memory is better than 
mine.  I caught myself a couple of times not remembering which file I put 
new info into.  Since surnames will have at least one repeat across each 
file I had trouble remembering or sometimes would just open the wrong file 
and input the new info.  Well, once it was done I didn't want to redo it. 
Now I am faced with merging files.


I am sure that it is a personal preference but memory and organization will 
play a big part in your decision.


Have fun,
Erin

No because these are 4 distinct children.  I attach their individual marker 
info to their own own individual page.  They have the same parent though and 
I want to attach the 4 sources to their parents in the parents AKA  I know 
the parents' full names and the names recorded on their childrens' markers 
are different than their full names.


This couple had 10 children with 6 dying in infancy.  All 6 had names, all 
six have markers in the churchyard.  They are 6 different people.


If I were to do as you has suggested, then why wouldn't I just make one 
source with everyone in that cemetery listed in the detail and then I could 
just attach that one source to all 120 people in that cemetery.

Ok, you can continue trying to use only one master source 4 times, which 
won't ever work, and keep trying until your forehead gets bloody banging it 
against the wall if you want, or you can try to figure out a way to get the 
AKAs to reflect the children's headstones. One way is to attach this single 
master source and change the detail to include all of the children. Another 
way is to create 5 different master sources. Or, like I said, you can get 
your forehead bloody and never get the AKAs sourced. Your choice.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy with Linux/Wine

2008-09-25 Thread James Sindberg

I have been doing some research into using Legacy in a totally
Linux environment.  I've also found evidence that this is workable.

I still have more research to do.
Then I'll need to get my feet wet and actually try it.

In the end I hope to be able to run Legacy on a memory stick
using a virtual memory program, Qemu, that contains Linux,
Wine, and Legacy.  That way I can put the stick in
any PC, run Qemu, Linux, and then Legacy in Wine,
so Legacy thinks it is running on a C-drive.
