Re: [LegacyUG] Here is a good example
When I go to Options-Customize-Data Entry-Presumed Dead and set Ask if Living to 90 and Set as dead if over 120 and click on APPLY I get a window that is labeled Mark as Not Living if over 120 Years Old that says: This process sets Living to NO for the following: 1. Any one with an entry in the Death Date or Place or the Burial Date or Place. 2. Anyone with a valid date in either the Birth or Christening date field that is over 120 years ago. 3. Anyone with a death cause. I conclude that if at least one of the entries is not made, Legacy won't set to dead. One way to solve the problem is to set an estimated birth date. Example: if the parent had a child that was born in 1850 or for that matter died in 1850 you could set the parent's birth date as Before 1850. That would give Legacy a basis for computing Living? YES or NO.

[LegacyUG] RE: Jim's Aha Moment to the + Symbol... Thanks
Thanks, Brian, JL, Ange, Dede, and Jenny, Do you mean the + sign that indicates there's more than one relationship? I had to plot it out. I said I was a bit dense at times... John's father, Joe, is Rose's mother, Louisa's, brother. Hence, Joe's and Louisa's parents are John's and Rose's grandparents. I reset the relationships to begin with John and the relationship labeling appeared as follows: John = Self Rose, his wife = 1st cousin + Joe, their son = Son + Levine, John's father-in-law = Father-in-law + Louisa, John's mother-in-law = Aunt + And then I think this may be the simple answer. In the case of the relationship between John and Rose, she is his 1st cousin PLUS she is his wife. In the case of relationship with Louisa, she is John's aunt, PLUS she is his mother-in-law. If this is what the + symbol means in the relationship labeling, Hallelujah!!! So when I reset the relationships to myself as the primary individual - John = my 1st cousin 3 times removed Rose = my 1st cousin 3 times removed PLUS, +, the wife of my 1st cousin 3 times removed. I hope this is as simple as the developers of Legacy meant this relationship label + symbol to mean... or I'm screwed!!! The issue is clear, and the + symbols in the relationship, as well as when used with other types of views has a different there is more meaning, so-to-speak.

Still Confused... RE: [LegacyUG] Abbreviation/Symbol Definition - +
Jenny, Certainly appreciate your answer, but I could thick and missing something. I understand your technical explanation as to upwards and downwards direction relationships and the use of the + and - symbols outside of Legacy. My current Legacy Family screens only show the + in the relationship areas to the wife, Rose, and her son, Joe. My problem is, if that is the case, translated as a symbol in Legacy, it should then show also on the John's, the husband's relationship area. According to your explanation then both John and Rose relationship description should be exactly the same as both are offspring of siblings, 1st cousins who married. I have re-set the relationship calculation a number of times and keep coming up with the same results - John = 1st cousin 3 removed and Rose = 1st cousin 3 times removed +. Thanks for your help.

Ange, You said, in your email Sent: Sunday, February 08, 2009 8:26 PM - Hi --- The + sign with RELATIONSHIPS actually means that that individual is related to you (or whomever you used to calculate the relationships) in more than one way. You are correct, both John and Rose, his wife, are both my 1st cousins 3 times removed. We all have a common ancestor, their grandfather and my ggg-grandfather. But then should not the + symbol also appear against the relationship label for John as well as for Rose. And then you suggested that - In the Family View right-click on the relationship title. There will be 4 different options. The third option reads VIEW ADDITITIONAL RELATIONSHIPS This will bring you to a screen which will show you all the ways this individual is related to you. I followed your instructions and I do have 4 different options. They are: 1. Set Relationship Foreground Color... 2. Set Relationship Background Color... 3. Open Relationship Calculator... 4. Set Relationships in Other Languages... I am using Version 7.0.0.86 and I do not see View Additional Relationships. I have used the Relationship Calculator, and it provides what it does but no solution to the + symbol. Could it be that the permutations in the program do not recognize unions of 1st cousins therefore the labeling defaults to a specific title, that is, 1st cousin 3 times removed + to only one individual of a pair?

six-of-one, half-a-dozen-of-the-other. I always enter an individual with
their birth name, if I know it at the time of the first entry to my
database. If I don't, I enter { ? } as an unknown and to be determined.

I am new to this user group and fairly new to genealogy in general, and I
want to start out on the right foot.
I know that women entered into family group records should be entered under
their maiden names. But how do you handle sources, events and such after
their name changes in marriage? Case in point, my mother. Her maiden name
was Shirley Akers. Her name became Shirley Williams when she married. I
entered her on the family group sheet as Akers. But many of the events in
her later life, as well as many of her letters, published articles and
e-mails that I have as sources, are under the name of Williams.
I'm thinking I would cite sources just like anyone else, but put the master
source name under Akers. Any suggestions? I'm a bit confused on this
point.
Thanks in advance for advice. I'm looking forward to learning from this
group.

[LegacyUG] Entering In Unknowns To Database
Good Afternoon, My question is not concerning any set-up issue or technical working of the Legacy program. I have come upon a bit of confusion as how to enter specific individuals to my Legacy database. I have the following information: 1. My gg-granduncle Samuel Victor Abraham, born 1827, died 1919. His obituary from the 10 Oct 1919 Jewish Chronicle states His mother was Ms. Rebecca Levy of Deal, whose sister was grandmother of Sir Sidney Lee. 2. His mother was my ggg-grandmother Rebecca (nee Levy/Levi) Abraham, born circa 1780, died 1864. 3. Her father was Michael Levy/Levi, my -grandfather. 4. Her sister was the grandmother of Sir Simon Lee. 5. Simon Lee was born Solomon Lazarus Lee, 1859, and died 1926. (One biographical account states that his birth name was Solomon Lazarus Levi.) 6. Simon Lee's parents are Lazarus Lee and Jessie Davis. 7. Simon Lee also has a sister, Elizabeth Lee. I have not discovered as to which of Lazarus Lee or Jessie Davis, Simon's and Elizabeth's parents is the child of Simon Lee's grandmother. My question: How could I enter Simon (Solomon Lazarus) Lee into my Legacy database to show a direct relationship to his grandmother (nee Levy/Levi), my ggg-grandmother Rebecca (nee Levy/Levi) Abraham? I am using Legacy 7.0. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Jim Smith jsmit...@tampabay.rr.com *** Holiday discounts on Legacy 7.0, add-ons, books, and more.

Just generally speaking, and maybe this could apply to your case: When I pull various bits of information from one source, I use the document as a Master Source or I quote the contents of it under Source Detail Text, depending what makes sense there. If it came from a newspaper I would put the contents of an obit, for instance, in the Source Detail Text, quoting the newspaper itself as the Master Source and then I put the whole thing on the Source Clipboard. Then I paste this source for each person in the appropriate place.

Re: [LegacyUG] Reporting In Legacy
Connie and Cathy: Thank you for your responses. I have attempted the creation of the same reporting in Legacy. The issue I have with the source and citation presentation in this reporting is that it is too much and too academic to present to a family member who has a minimal understanding of the science of genealogy. The Clooz reporting of an ancestor's document and data collection(s) is a very good method of presenting what is in a family data library without being overwhelming. When I introduce a family member to their family history it is key to provide a top level picture versus one that, as one family member mentioned to me, you need another degree to understand what's here on this paper. It's just a simple Index that is also a time-line. I'm always on the look-out for ways to win-over family members to an understanding of genealogy versus watching their eyes cloud-over with Oh no, here we go again with the begats! I understand the extra work involved in maintaining two databases. I have been doing so for awhile, and I do like the Legacy/Clooz integration component. If I had been fully aware of the saprophytic relationship which makes it impossible now to keep up with current upgrades I would never have clicked the Yes to integration. But I like the capabilities of both softwares and so I do double entry. (I have used both Legacy and Clooz since their inceptions.) It's worth the results, especially the reporting ones, and also the organization of documents and data.

[LegacyUG] Reporting In Legacy
Greetings: Can anyone give me a hint on how I could, if a can, create a report through Legacy similar to one I can get through Clooz? The Clooz capability is, after entering various documents, etc., I can request a summary of entered sources, documents, etc., on file specific to a certain chosen individual in my data. For example: Individual – Jim Smith Sources Documents Available, (on file) – 1. (Source ID) CEN 003 – (Source Title) 1861 England Census 2. 1. CEN 015 – 1871 England Census 3. 2. BENG 027 – 1859 Civil Birth Registration 4. 3. IMG 037 – 1896 Passenger Manifest I'm trying to see if the same type of information is capable of being reported through Legacy. I find this capability one of the key Clooz reporting capabilities.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Version 8
I'm really lost at the continued and prolonged discussion of the anticipation of a new upgrade be it 7.0 or 8.0... The speed of change does not even give me a chance to breathe at times, and I haven't even grasped every Legacy nuance I need to have learned from the release of version 4 or before. And yes I'm using 6 point whatever, but with the continued acceleration of external inputs, as with Mills' increased and addended source and citation formats, upgrades need to take time, to get whatever needs we want to be added, to be added with care. I would sooner wait and pay less over time for less upgrades and get better and more quality substance. Just a thought.

Re: [LegacyUG] Individual Placement Issue... Help
I would like to thank everyone for their suggestions and their ideas. I appreciate the offers. I will more than likely add the 18th person in the Legacy database as I have now further discovered that the eldest son, my GGG-Grandparents' 3rd child, my GG-Granduncle William had eight children. By adding a temporary 18th child will insure that Granddaughter Sarah Jane does not get lost in the shuffle, so-to-speak. As I mentioned initially, I've narrowed the parent possibility down to six of the 14 sisters. As the family seemed to remain, until later generations, in the areas surrounding Todmorden and Walsden in Lancashire/Yorkshire, my search is somewhat concentrated to a conclusive environment. I don't want to bog down this Legacy users' bulletin board any further with the idiosyncrasies of my maternal line.

[LegacyUG] Individual Placement Issue... Help
Help... Does anyone have a solution to my small problem? I would like to enter a grand-daughter to an individual without adding a blank or unnamed daughter, into my database Any suggestions?

Also in the same house are eight of my 10 Half-GG-Grandaunts, all listed on the same 1881 Census as unmarried. The other two Half-GG-Grandaunts are also unmarried and living together 30 minutes away. Based on biological possibilities three of the Half-GG-Grandaunts could have been Sarah Jane Sutcliffe's mother. Also, there are three other GG-Grandaunts and one GG-Grandmother. All 14 were daughters of my GGG-Grandfather John Parker, and his two wives; Elizabeth - four daughters; Jane - 10 daughters. I have not been able to determine which of the possible six; three GG-Grandaunts or three Half-GG-Grandaunts was Sarah Jane Sutcliffe's mother, and I don't want to enter a blank individual.

I've become so overwhelmed with the size of this family that I would like to have the facility of a direct or indirect connect between the grandparents and the child, not an 18th child. I'm pretty sure that one of the 14 daughters is the mother but at this time, I can not prove which.

Re: [LegacyUG] Clooz vs. Heritage Collector vs. ... ? Which, if any, to use with Legacy?
Greetings... I use both Legacy and Master Genealogist, and have used Clooz since its inception. Most recently I got a copy of Custodian 3, which I am yet to tackle. I am a stickler for software and do like using what I consider the best that's out there, best for me, that is. Each software package has its pros and cons, as well as its own idiosyncrasies. This may all seem redundant, but I like the differences that I can achieve using the different vehicles. I like the facility of Clooz to create the variety of document management reporting. I like the ability to enter the name of an ancestor and be able to produce a condensed reporting of what documents and sources I have on file. As I am now the family librarian and historian one of my goals is to be able to present our family history information in a multiple varieties of ways that could suit the individual needs of family members who are interested. My current family is globally spread. Having the available variety of reporting formats and the ability to store and present data in various ways seems to satisfy family members and seems to incite them to become more supportive and involved in the overall project.

Re: [LegacyUG] Adopted Daughter unmarried mother
Greetings: Changing the direction a wee bit... If the time is prior to 1926, when adoption was formally legalized in England... how would one enter in the daughter of one of the parents, and who was not necessarily related to the other parent? The biological father is not known, but the parenting father's name is entered in simultaneous censuses. The mother's maiden name is used in legal documents. For example: - 1861 Baptismal record - Child, Anne, is baptised under mother's maiden name: Jane Smith. No father is listed. - 1863 Marriage record - Mother, Anne Smith marries Charles Jones - 1871 and 1881 England Census - Child is listed as Jane Jones - 1887 Marriage record - Jane Smith marries George Brown. Smith is given as maiden name. - 1888 Birth Registration of daughter Elizabeth Brown. Mother is listed as Jane Brown formerly Smith. - 1920 and 1927 US publications refer to Jane (Smith) Brown as Jane (Jones) Brown. Based on the documents collected, a logical conclusion is that Jane (Smith) Brown's biological father is not known. It appears that Jane Smith may have considered Charles Jones her father, but there is no conclusive evidence that he is her biological father. Also due to the year it can not be noted that Jane Smith was legally adopted by Charles Jones. So in this case how would Jane (Smith) Brown or Jane (Jones) Brown be entered into Legacy?

(Everyone please be advised that I am a strong proponent and user of Clooz, Legacy and Master Genealogist softwares, and I hope to continue using the genealogy document concept in my work.) I have been having a problem since last Thursday that may involve my upgrade copy of Clooz 2.1. I am not saying that the issue is with Clooz but I think the software program is being used by a Trojan. I have been using Clooz steadily and more increasingly since the release of the new upgrade. Sometime last week a repeat problem began again as I had had in the past with the installation and configuration of Clooz 2.1. When I initiated Legacy or The Master Genealogist, a dialog box as before, appeared asking if I wanted to install Clooz 2.1, after it had already been installed. After a number of repeats, I followed all previous instructions, and removed and un-installed all traces of Clooz. I reinstalled but no success this time. Now the problem does not go away or is not fixed as it had been fixed in the past. This is the secondary issue and from my understanding is an MS Windows issue with the Clooz installation. I next discovered that 43 incidents of a Trojan, Trojan.Daugeru, had infected my PC. I cleaned my PC completely. I also had a professional service examine my PC. My PC service and speed continued to deteriorate. I ran a number of virus, spyware and malware checks and cleaned my PC completely. I used a number of software including Norton, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, CCleaner, Spybot Search, and PC Tools to examine and clean my PC. Overkill maybe, but the Trojan was completely removed. (FYI, Spyware Doctor, of those I used, was the only software the caught the Trojan.Daugeru.) In order to increase the speed of the server, as well as exclude the interference of some of the security software, I removed two softwares: Norton and SpySweeper. All this was done in a Safe-Mode and the PC hard drives were defragged, each at least three times... Overkill, possibly, but some of the actions were suggested by the professionals. And at their suggestion, I conducted a number of the processes as they felt that I could handle the work without having to spend any additional funds for what would be the same service that they would have to charge. After having completed all process for a thorough removal and cleansing of my PC, I reinstalled Clooz 2.1. I put the Clooz 2.1 CD in to the drive and began the installation process. At some point during the installation process I received 10 high-level Virus Alerts from Spyware Doctor that the Trojan.Daugeru had attempted once again to infect my PC. This happened twice for 20 attempts, and has happened each time I have reinstalled Clooz 2.1. Be it coincidence, this has happened only and every time I reinstall Clooz 2.1, something that did not happen prior to the appearance of the Trojan.Daugeru. I knew it couldn't be from the Clooz 2.1 CD as I had already installed and used the program since it was first published. I was just wondering, as the coincidence of the attacks seem to somehow target Clooz, and that the trojan is relatively new, that there may have been another Clooz user having had the same issue(s). Once all was done, I spoke too soon about any not having any further problems with my Clooz file and the effects of the Trojan. I decided to start working again inputting data and new Sources in my Legacy and Clooz database. As I checked my existent database of 264 Sources, there appears to be a major screw-up. It looks like Source Titles have been changed and in some cases deleted. It appears that parts of the titles have been deleted and changed. I always use an individual's name in the Source Title, and a good percentage of the names are gone. For example, my Personal File # DSCO 001 should be linked to Source

There is a demo version you can try. http://www.arcsoft.com/products/panoramamaker/ Jim Smith - Original Message - From: Wendy Howard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Sunday, December 10, 2006 12:24 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] more questions about photos Hi Julie, I find Picasa useful for emailing reduced-size copies of my photos to people, and for creating copies of lower resolution for loading on my web site while retaining the original. It does a lot more, of course, but those are the two situations I've been finding it useful for. Can anyone recommend free software that will knit two photos together, such as when the scenery is too big for one shot, so a series has been taken? I had a program that did it well years ago (it might have been the software that came with the scanner I used to have), but with changing hardware and software over the years it has vanished, and I've never found something to do this particular job. It would be useful for some documents that are too big for the scanner.

Re: [LegacyUG] Setting up family history web site with Legacy
Make this your first rule: DO NOT GIVE ANYONE ACCESS TO YOUR DATA BASE! Information that a family member "KNOWS TO BE TRUE" may be totally incorrect. If you allow them to change your data base.......

I asked Legacy Family Tree advice on how to set it up. One of the things they suggested was ask the Legacy User Group for advice. My goal is to have something that is very user friendly for my different family members to communicate and sharefamily history.I like the Legacy Family Tree software program and I am hoping to beable to use it, along with Macromedia software such as Dreamweaver, to set up the web page databases and interactivecapabilities--in essence, giving family members around the world thecapability to work on family history projects together, in real time and with seamless work compatibility.I want all family members to have access to documents and images, which will be digitized or hyperlinked and stored on our own server. This way our documentation is available as well as the individual and family statistics. For instance, we have family bulletins, family stories, pictures, certificates, tax and census records that we would like our children and grandchildren to have easy access. We would have journalling andpersonal history sharing capability, and the all important research logs. It will have several user defined security levels to protect their individual, family, and extended family privacy, while still making other appropriate information available to the public. Any advice you can give me would surely be appreciated.
