I'm no computer whiz, so this will be pretty basic. When creating your message you need to choose Plain Text instead of HTML. That choice should be in a drop-down box at the top of your e-mail screen. Plain Text will give you a totally boring result like this one instead of a "personalized" font. Trimming your post means to delete non-essential messages from the bottom as well as deleting the Legacy tag lines that get automatically added to every message. We do this because some list members are on dial-up, and both HTML and repeated tag lines slow their download time and increase their costs. Note that I'm trimming earlier messages from this response because only your most recent is pertinent. Most of us forget the rules from time to time, and then eventually someone explodes.

Mary, Thanks for the cautions and the sites for online genealogy lessons. I'm going to check those out soon.

A GEDCOM isn't a true source. Your sources should be things such as census records, church records, marriage, death, land, etc. And remember that almost any source can have errors. Even if the sources look complete, they might be fraudulent because the person wanted to be a Mayflower descendant or whatever. Don't add GEDCOMs to your database just because it has someone with the same name as your ancestor - you'll be surprised at just how many men had the same names, and sometimes even lived in the same area. I researched one county that had 14 men with the same name, and although some were related, they weren't all related to each other. Take all the information you find with a grain of salt and then verify and analyze. Look at it carefully to see if it makes sense - are the kids listed as being born too far apart, too close together, too late in the marriage, before the mother was of age to have children, etc. Was the family listed as being in the US before there were even settlers or in a "state" before it was settled (i.e., born in Illinois in 1630)? Don't laugh - I've seen all of the above. On one database, my mother is married to her step-father and another I've seen, one child is also his own grandfather, born before his parents were born. Some other ideas - take some classes in genealogy research, read some basic genealogy books on how to find information, visit your local Family History Center and your library, visit a larger genealogy library. There are also some good basic online lessons at Rootsweb, Ancestry and FamilySearch. Mary Wanna lose weight? Weight Loss Programs that work.

Then do as much cleanup and sanity checking as you can. Only when you find that you trust the data, merge it, or parts of it, into your file. Legacy has substantial tools to help resolve duplications during a merge, although not foolproof (e.g., if names are spelled differently). Any family trees that I have found at public web sites contain either clear mistakes or unwarranted assumptions. Some people seem to throw together databases from various sources and hope that these people are really connected. Assumptions can get propagated until they appear to be validated from multiple sources, when really they are not. Sometimes you see birth dates that are clearly impossible. Of course if you can contact the person who uploaded the tree and get to know how they acquired the data, you are much further ahead. Aside from whether the individuals really belong in your tree, you can clean up more mundane things like standardizing locations and dates before the merge. For sources, you can automatically add a source during the merge that indicates that the individuals came from the online database. If you verify some data using other sources, you can add those source citations before or after the merge. The good news is that may have found a large extended family that is valid! Good luck.

Re: [LegacyUG] Just Starting Out
Ron, I am getting so many good suggestions and I really appreciate it. I have been looking at the input screens and lamenting over how many fields there were to fill in!! I looked at the Options>Customize and GOODNESS! There are a million of these it seems. I can see it is going to take some time just to play around and see what things look like as I change various things. Legacy sure seems like a very complex program and yet simple to use. I suppose it can do almost anything (except my laundry while I'm busy with genealogy.) Thanks.

My first piece of advice would be to have a play; someone suggested entering a small number of relatives. Whilst this is good practice for entering and sourcing data etc., you may not wish to change this once entered, in which case play with the Sample file - that's what it is for. When entering data remember that just because a field is there you don't need to put anything in it if you don't want. In any event have a look at the Sample file to see what the set up is like. Go to Options>Customise and learn the settings, again by playing with them, I'm afraid that there are a lot. The Help files are *always* the most up to date and the Help button on a screen relates only to that screen (same as f1 in most programs). Back-up regularly when involved in a long session. If you do not have a backup Icon on the top-bar then right click on the bar and drag it onto the main bar (and any others you fancy!). Always back-up when finishing - if no changes have been made you will not be invited to. Maintaining your back-ups means you can play to your hearts content without worrying about losing your stuff. Regard the RINs and MRINs as just numbers and not related to the status, or order of preference, of any individual. I see that you are thinking of creating web pages, I have omitted "simple" as who knows how it will grow - have a look at my "simple" one :-). Which, by the way, contains some tutorials which may interest you, the fergys.co.uk one (below). If thinking of using the Pedigree web pages, in Customise>Options set Legacy not to re-use empty RINs as those pages use them as the file names. Only use alpha-numeric characters plus hyphen and underscores in file and folder names, and it is better to settle on how you are going to use the case from day one eg. ronferguson.jpg or RonFerguson.jpg etc. Incidentally, Legacy does not like "JPEG", so always use "JPG" instead. Remember that whilst Windows is case insensitive most web servers are not. I think I'd better leave it there else you may feel that it's a bit complicated - always feel free to ask here!

" I would be careful with what information you enter into your database that you pick up from online trees that do not list sources, but I personally do include such information if it seems to help obtain clues. Two things I would suggest when you add information to your database is that: 1) You always source the fields you populate so that later you know where and from whom you recorded the information. There is nothing worse than to look at your database and wonder where you got a specific piece of information, especially if you find other records whose data conflicts with what you already have. 2) As I enter the source information, I make use of Legacy's Surety Level, and use either 1 (Marginal), or 0 (Have Not Decided Yet) to be able to later identify those entries that I'm not sure of. You can include the Surety Level when you print Source Citations in your reports. Once so entered, I then also look for supporting source documentation to verify/validate the information.

You're wise to give some thought to the end product that you'd like to achieve. As others have suggested, entering a few names and previewing the results is definitely a good way to start. But I would caution that you not be overly concerned about having things perfect straight out of the gate. No matter how hard you try, you're bound to find eventually that you wish you'd done something a little differently. Fortunately with Legacy many changes are relatively easy to make.
