RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Jennifer, Sorry about the delay in coming back to you. but I up-date my website at the end of the month so during the last week of the month I get pretty busy. You comprehensive report seems to confirm the observations which I made and your conclusion seems reasonable. If you haven't done so already I would submit the whole of your e-mail as a bug report.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Ron, Thanks for taking a look at it as well. I have come up with the following: Basic Source A used to cite only husband's relationship to father and mother: Husband relationships: Father and mother - correct Wife relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Child-Par. Rel. for husband - no line appears, correct Child-Par. Rel. for wife - line incorrectly appears with incorrect husband's Basic Source A cited (same as your outcome) Child-Par. Rel. line for children: None shows - correct, as they were not sourced Basic Source B used to cite only wife's relationship to father and mother: Husband relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Wife relationships: Father and mother - Cited correctly with Source B No Child-Par. Rel. line for husband, wife, or children - correct Basic Source C used to cite only son's relationship to father and mother: Husband relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Wife relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Son's relationships: Father and mother - Cited correctly with Source C on Child-Par. Rel. line No Child-Par Rel. line for husband or wife - correct SourceWriter Source D used to cite only husband's relationship to father and mother: Husband relationships: Father and mother - Cited correctly with Source D Wife relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct No Child-Par. Rel. line for husband or children - correct Child-Par. Rel. line for wife incorrectly cites husband's Source D; there should not be a Child-Par. Rel. line for wife SourceWriter Source E used to cite only wife's relationship to father and mother: Husband relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Wife relationships: Father and mother - Cited correctly with Source E No Child-Par. Rel. lines for husband, wife, or children - correct SourceWriter Source F used to cite only son's relationship to father and mother: Husband relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Wife relationships: Father and mother - Not sourced - correct Son's relationships: Father and mother - Both sourced correctly on Child-Par. Rel. line with Source F. No Child-Par Rel. line for husband or wife - correct FYI, I've also figured out that if I use either SourceWriter or Basic to source the relationship for the youngest child's father and mother, the Child-Par. Rel. line shows up on the husband using the source for the youngest child's relationship to the mother and father. It only works for the youngest child. I've tried doing it on all others, and no Child-Par. Rel. line shows up for the husband. So, actually, the problem lies with A) Placing a either a Basic or SourceWriter source for father and mother on the the husband causes the wife to have a "Child-Par Rel." line on the FGR. B) Placing either a Basic or SourceWriter source for father and mother on the youngest child causes the husband to have a "Child-Par. Rel." line on the FGR. It's not the SourceWriter vs. Basic Source, but rather the husband and youngest child.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Jennifer, Congrats on all the work which you have put in on this. I have now had a chance to study effects in my own files, so firstly let us agree on one thing - that there is not a problem with the old style sources (please exclude Child-Par Rel from this for the moment). >From now one I only used the Source Writer created sources, all in newly >created files. The initial one I did seemed to produce a load of rubbish regarding the sources. I closed Legacy and reopened and they then seemed OK, although with some entries which puzzled me. So I then entered the details for another new family. This again was OK - again, exclude Child-Par Rel. In the first I has used the wife as the main person and in the second the husband, all references were different to enable recognition). Summary for the second (husband as main person), excluding Child-Par Rel. Husband Relationships: Father and Mother - correct Mother Relationships: Father and Mother - correct Son: Relationship to both Mother and Father not given. Child-Par Rel. Husband: not given Wife: used the sources for the husband's relationship to *his* parents Son: used the sources for his relationship to his parents. Other Children: I did not enter sources for these and no entries were made for any of the relationships. I am not sure what this means except that more work is required to establish exactly what is going on! It may be that different circumstances are producing varying outputs and if so it is going to be a heck of a job to track down. It is also not clear when the Child-Par Rel will be created and how it selects the source(s) to use. To anyone joining this thread, please leave previous emails attached to help check questions and answers. Many thanks.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Elizabeth et al: I think I am finally getting somewhere. My sources were all SourceWriter. I deleted all sources for Charles, Blanche, and all children for Mother and Father Relationship. I then used a Basic source to source Charles' relationships with his mother and father. When I did this, the "Child-Par Rel." line disappears from underneath Charles and all is well with him. The relationship is sourced correctly on the lines showing his parents' names. However, the wife, Blanche, still has a line called "Child-Par Rel." and the Basic Source I used for Charles is showing up here, though it is not attached to Blanche for Father Rel. or Mother Rel. Now, I also then went back and deleted this Basic Source from Charles for Father Rel. and Mother Rel. I then put it on Blanche for Father Rel. and Mother Rel. Now my family group sheet looks fine. So it appears to be a problem with SourceWriter and with the husband. Whew! Bug found! Now I will report it to Support.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Let me try answering this again. I have sourced Sallie Thompson as the biological daughter of Andrew Thompson. On the FGS where Sallie is the wife is: Father: Andrew Thompson (1780-abt1865) (Relationship: Biological[source#]) This is all on one line and there is not an additional line called Child-Par. Rel. on the FGS when Sallie is the wife. That line appears only when Sallie is the child.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
In a FGS, the parents of both the husband and wife are shown, when known, whether or not the relationship is defined and/or sourced. If it is defined and sourced, the source shows. When the child/parent relationship is defined and sourced, and the person is a child on the FGS, there is a Child-Par. Rel. line, the relationship is defined and the source given. I use the Basic Source only.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Elizabeth, Yes, you are correct in understanding what I am saying. Do you have an extra line on your family group sheet called "Child-Par. Rel." under the wife's name? This is where I am finding the problem. In the family group sheet with Charles as husband, the line containing Charles' father's name says "Jeremiah Pemberton...(Relationship)" and correctly sources the relationship here. I think this "Child-Par. Rel." line is only supposed to show up on the children and not on the husband and wife. Please let me know if you have this line. Thanks!

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
I'm on V 7.0.0.55 and can also confirm something not quite right I tagged a set of about 20 people, half related, half not. About 17 of the 20 people are sourced to the same document - with original V6 sourcing, the rest are not. I then CREATED a BRAND NEW source using the Source Writer and attached it to ONE person's child-parent relationship. (Myself to my mother). I called this source "Test" and filled in most of the data as test1, test2, etc. to be absolutely certain of it's references. I then ran the family group sheet on Tag 3.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
If I understand what you are doing: you have Charles relationship to his parents sourced, but when you choose that option when he is the parent, you are expecting to see the source of this relationship in a family group sheet. When I do this, I get the anticipated result. That is, I have a child whose relationship is biological and have sourced that information. This relationship with her father, biological, is stated on her family group record when she is a mother, and it is sourced correctly. I have 7.0.0.55, so I do not think this is a bug, at least in the Basic Source system. Elizabeth researching the descendants of William and Sarah (Patterson) Thompson - Original Message - From: "Jennifer Trahan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2008 5:50 PM Subject: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem I recently began sourcing father and mother relationships since Legacy gives the option to do so. For example, Charles Pemberton is shown in the 1860 U.S. Census with his father and mother, Jeremiah and Susanna Pemberton. On the assigned sources screen for Charles, I have Father Rel: 1860 U.S. Census - Michigan, Wayne and the same thing for Mother Rel. When I create Charles' family group record (with him as husband), I go to report options and select "Child-Parent Relationships" on the Include tab. In the family group record, a new line for Charles shows up called "Child-Par Rel." I would expect to see the 1860 U.S. Census source referenced here, but it is not. For Charles' youngest child, Nellie, on her assigned sources screen, I have referenced 3 of her marriage records to Father Rel. and Mother Rel. These 3 marriage records show up in the Child-Par. Rel. field for Charles. They also show up for Nellie under Child-Par. Rel. They are supposed to show up for Nellie in that field, but why are they showing up for Charles? Shouldn't this field be for sources showing Charles' relationship to his parents and not his children's relationship to him? To confuse matters, for Charles' other children (Susanna, Dewey, Whitfield, and Martha), I have sourced their individual marriage records to Father Rel. and Mother Rel. on their individual assigned sources screens. These do NOT show up in Charles' Child-Par Rel. field on the Family Group Record. I have no idea why Nellie's randomly shows up incorrectly and not the other childrens'. Why don't they all show up incorrectly? And, finally, to confuse matters again, in the Child-Par. Rel. field for Charles' wife, Blanche, the 1860 U.S. Census - Michigan, Wayne for the household of Jeremiah and Susanna Pemberton is referenced. However, Blanche was a child in 1860 and not yet married to Charles. She did not live in the household of Charles and his parents, and neither is this source accidentally attached to her anywhere in her assigned sources screen. I have double checked all source citations on all the individuals' assigned sources screen to make sure I did not attach a source incorrectly. Is this a bug of some sort? Has anyone else had this problem? I did a check/repair file just to make sure, and the same problem occurs. I've also noticed once before on my file ID report that for father rel. and mother rel. citations, the wrong name shows up for a particular file ID. I think I will quit sourcing father/mother relationships for now and not include them in my family group record. However, I would like to be able to do so in the future.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Dennis: I have done a file maintenance/check repair. The same thing keeps occuring. I ran some other family group sheets on other families, and the same kinds of things also occurred. I have a second database. I will try it with that one tonight. Ron: Thanks in advance for taking a look at it when you get time. It's almost like Legacy is taking the youngest child's sources for Child-Parent Relationship and moving them to the husband and taking the husband's and moving them to the wife. What I didn't add earlier is that under the husband, Charles, on the line for his father, after his father's name, it shows "(Relationship)" with the 1860 U.S. Census properly cited here. This does the same thing for the wife, Blanche, with the sources for her properly cited. I am beginning to think this is what the Child-Parent Relatiosnhips is supposed to look like on the family group sheet for the husband and wife, so I'm not sure why it adds an extra line called "Child-Par Rel." with the wrong sources attached. Maybe this extra line called "Child-Par Rel." is only supposed to be added for the children of Charles and Blanche, since there would be no line under each child for "Father" and "Mother." The children all seem to have the proper sources on this "Child-Par Rel." line.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Father/Mother Relationship Problem
Kirsten, Without at least doing a File Maintenance/Check Repair on the files I would be very loath to say "it's a bug", it could well be due to corrupted files or incorrect entries (and I have no time to check this today), and these are just two possibilities off the top of my head. It should be remembered that many of the problems initially described on LUG as a bug turn out to be an "Oh! I thought I'd set that" or a misunderstanding as to what the expected input/output should be.
