RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses
Hi Cathy, All the people in the file I am currently working with are of one tree. Some are more distant, that is the file includes other members of the families of people who married in. I am wanting the parents of those who married in, but not any of the others related to those who married in. I think the exported file might do. Export it to a Legacy file to include parents of spouses, tag all individuals within the resulting file with a selected tag, then import back into the current file. That should identify all the previously tagged individuals and the parents of spouses while not excluding from the primary file others related to those who married in. I think that will work.

RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses
Hi Alice, Unless you did a search for Relationship equal to Unrelated, I think your 383 are likely people unattached to your major tree - so if you can't see any of them, that's why. There isn't a way of automatically tagging the parents of those who marry in, however there is a way to include the parents of tagged people in an exported file (Legacy or Gedcom) if your concern is to export a file with them added. See the export dialogues. Cathy At 11:18 AM 12/02/2007, you wrote: Thanks Ron. I don't see how that will get me what I want.

I think I will assign another tag number to the non-related group and go down the name list to try to find the matching parents. Can't think of anything else to do but eyeball it. -- Alice Have you unlocked the real power of Legacy? Legacy 6.0 Deluxe has 92 features not found in the Standard Edition.

RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses
Thanks Ron. I don't see how that will get me what I want. There are 1543 individuals in my Legacy file. 1160 of those individuals are related, including spouses, leaving 383 non-related. The parents I am looking for would be in that group of 383 non-related individuals. I think I will assign another tag number to the non-related group and go down the name list to try to find the matching parents. Can't think of anything else to do but eyeball it. -- Alice > [Original Message] > From: ronald ferguson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: > Date: 2/11/2007 8:27:04 PM > Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses > > Alice, > > I am not sure how far back you wish to go with this but in advanced tagging > have you tried tagging "Entire family line" , it may, though give you far > more than you wish. > > Ron Ferguson > > > > _ > > For Genealogy, Software and Social visit: > http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/fergys/ > *New Blog* - Improve Colour Photos with The GIMP > Includes the family tree for Alan J Grimshaw > http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/fergys/Grimshaw/ > __ > > > > > > >From: "Alice L McVearry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Reply-To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com > >To: "LegacyUserGroup" > >Subject: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses > >Date: Sun, 11 Feb 2007 18:45:36 -0500 > > > >I have tagged a group of people who are all related as defined by the > >Relationship Calculator.

RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses
Alice, I am not sure how far back you wish to go with this but in advanced tagging have you tried tagging "Entire family line" , it may, though give you far more than you wish.
