[LegacyUG] Entering same gender partners
When I try to enter a new "spouse," Legacy forces me to use either a male husband or female wife. How do I enter same gender partners? Surely, in this day, some of you have come across the same situation.

Linking same-sex individuals isn't possible in Legacy Family Tree. Please go to http://www.moss-fritch.com/legacy.htm for a work around. This info was compiled by one of our users.

RE: [LegacyUG] Entering same gender partners
Will Legacy Version 7 make provision for the recording of same-sex relationship and same-sex marriages? As most of you know, here in Canada same-sex marriages are not only lawful but also protected by our Human Rights Charter (part of our constitution), so over time many of your Canadian Legacy clients will have occasion to want to enter this marriage information about their gay relatives in their genealogy databases. In my rather limited family tree, I have three same-sex marriages (my own included) that I would like to record as marriages and not as common-law relationships, "friendships" or "partnerships" whose "relationship commencement date" is defined (as it is by Family Tree Maker) as the day that they met. Thanks. Stan P.S. I sincerely hope that you do not conclude that my asking this question is in any way a "political or social commentary, activist issue, religious opinion or morality lecture". (I just joined this user group a few days ago and would hate to be kicked off so soon.) It is a simple, dispassionate and objective observation that society is changing, and asking if Legacy will be keeping up with those changes or not. Having to use a "work-around" is a very distasteful way to treat anybody's spouse. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Terry/Support Sent: Sunday, April 13, 2008 5:21 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Entering same gender partners Linking same-sex individuals isn't possible in Legacy Family Tree.

RE: [LegacyUG] Entering same gender partners
This has not been addressed for Legacy v7. To handle these relationships, it will require extensive re-writing of Legacy's code and would cause a ripple effect that would affect several of the Legacy add-on programs made by other companies.

RE: [LegacyUG] Entering same gender partners
Afternoon Stan, Allow me to preface my comments by stating I am not a beta tester for version 7, so I have not yet evaluated the actually content of the upcoming software. Jim Terry kindly referenced a page from one of my two domains, the specific page dealing with Legacy and a 'work around' to record the information about which you ask. As that page identifies, Legacy provided (well, actually Jim provided) information about changes in version 7. Once Legacy releases version 7 I will be adding the new information for that version to my site. Those changes go a long way to assisting. Best, Denise L.
