Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7.5 and source citation import?
Leonard, The answer to your question posed in para. 2, re. same source but different detail. is that it doesn’t exist. With respect to this and your other suggestions, they would have to be made options, ie. users’ choice, as I, and probably many other users, would not agree with them.

Ward, Yes this is similar. Your comments led me to the Options > Customize > Source tab > Source Detail Defaults. I had the first three boxes checked and then discovered the Reset buttons cycle through each source and source text and list them as one line in the reports. This is exactly what I was looking for, it's a shave the program does not do this as default. My last huddle is to get Legacy to ignore its Subsequent Citations format as there are many times when a census is used as source for a persons' name, approximate birth year and birth state. The individual's name should appear under Legacy's Name Event, and the year, state would appear under the Birth Event. What is desirable is to have two footnotes with the same source info; one having the name as detail and the second having year, state as detail. Are you aware of an option that allows each footnote to appear with its own text? The truncation as it appears in the Subsequent Citations could happen any where in the footnote/endnote printout and the second, etc, usage could be for another person. This leads to confusion on the reader's part.

Re: [LegacyUG] Flip-Pal scanner stitched image question
Thx, Wm. I will do that. I know I have seen multiple recommendations for the IrfanView. Although, the problem I'm describing occurred in my Camedia sw from Olympus, which has been a strong and reliable workhorse for me "forever"...

Re: [LegacyUG] Edited TIF image not displaying
I will take a look at the options, but I just cropped and saved... don't remember it asking me anything. Will check settings. Yes, I was surprised that I ended up with a TIF file 3x as big as the TIF files I downloaded (which are comparable to my JPG files). I may just crop, print and exit without saving in the future! --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams From: Sherry/Support To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Sat, February 11, 2012 4:02:07 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Edited TIF image not displaying Definitely!

When I remove that link it removes the child's details. Don't think of the "Marriage" list as only containing wedded couples. It reflects *any* kind of association between two people that usually results in progeny. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

[LegacyUG] attaching illegitimate chld
Can someone help me get following right please. I have tried to enter child as new person then add father (already in tree) and mother (already in tree). I then on marriage page tick 'couple not married' but it automatically lists them in marriage list. When I remove that link it removes the child's details. Child was shown as 1st child from a groom's 2nd marriage, however real father was a son from 1st marriage. Incidentally real father didn't abandon her but planned to marry. He was apprenticed to his father, who took apprenticeship away in order to persuade mother (who was an orphan) to marry him instead and brought child up as his. The couple married 5 months after child was born. She ended up giving him 13 children of his own. He already had 11 from 1st marriage. Last child was 50 years younger than eldest from 1st marriage. Son didn't get apprenticeship back but was banned from contact.
