[LegacyUG] v7: Resolving push pin positioning
To all LUGers, For those who need to add or correct latitude and longitude for proper push pin positioning, refer to http://lat-long.com. There's more information there than anyone could ever use! Lookup is fast and simple. Just copy & paste the numbers that are shown on the web site under the 'Degrees Minutes Seconds' heading into the appropriate spot in the Legacy Master Location List. The numbers appear to be very accurate. Enjoy!

Easier yet, just go to the Master Location List, highlight the erroneous location and click on "Geo-code". >From the Individual's mapping window, click on the Resolve button to take you to the Master Location List where you can resolve the locations.

There's more information there than anyone could ever use!" was a very USA_centric thing to say and might have been more tactfully phrased on a list where many of the members do not have US connections. Good grief!!! This is ridiculous! Please forgive me for not being politically correct! I was merely trying to help by offering another way to locate places. (Yes, in the United States) My suggestion was NEVER intended to be the Holy Grail of research. It's really very simple; just take the suggestions you can use and discard the rest. If you have something constructive to add to make researching easier, then let's hear it. Otherwise I guess I need to turn on my politically-correct checker, as well as my spelling checker. That might be a suggestion for a Legacy feature -- a politically-correct checker for Legacy. Thank you, Sherry, for your input! Using the "Geo-Code" button provides a way MUCH easier to use to find a location. I'm still learning about the mapping features. I sometimes wonder how you keep from biting your tongue off with all the disrespect and flaming that comes from some individuals in this group! Thank you for your patients! You are MUCH appreciated! (No response necessary) Now I have a question that I hope someone can answer without getting broadsided: Where are some good French-related web sites? I've tried Cindi's List and found a few, however, I'm hoping that someone can provide a gold nugget web site for France. Thank you for any help!!!

RE: [LegacyUG] v7: Resolving push pin positioning
Mark, a great site, notice it's mainly the US but as I now have Ancestors in the US & Canada it will be useful. Hope anybody else who has found any useful links will post them to the LUG, in the past there has been some very good ones, I suppose I will have to spend some time cleaning up my "Favorites" soon.

Hi Mark, Actually I liked the site but was just being a smart-ass. Sorry for that. Normally I'm the one who laughs at the foolishness of political-correctness. Must have had a rotten night's sleep.

Re: [LegacyUG] v7: Resolving push pin positioning
Hello Brian, No problem, Brian! I found myself (no, I was not lost!) scratching my head (not literally!) over something that, to me, seemed very obvious (closely related to "assume").
