[LegacyUG] I'm getting an Endless Loop message
Hello all, I am having a problem I've never encountered before. I just entered a large generational family. While going through the Descendant tab, I get a pop up, that says: This marriage has now been processed 6 times. You could be in an endless loop. Note this MRIN # and check it later. and Warn after 5 encounters. I continue and get the same message, this happens on MRIN 746 and 336. Two messages then continues as normal. On MRIN 746, is a married couple, Sam and Hannah, they had 8 children, one of which is Elmer, and Elmer is the MRIN 336. He has no wife but a son. I've checked all relationships, marriages, children etc for these 2 MRINs, everything looks good, ran all File Maintenance, and still the problem continues. I now have no Idea where to check this or how to fix this. I would appreciate any advice on dealing with an Endless Loop.

In the FAMILY view, with your arrow on the name of the person you want to add COD info, Right-ClickNOTES to open the NOTES window. There are three tabs in this window. The third tab is MEDICAL. Click on MEDICAL and a place to enter CAUSE OF DEATH will be there. The NOTEPAD icon is also shown below the individual’s name in the FAMILY view.

Re: [LegacyUG] I'm getting an Endless Loop message
If this were my file, I would start by looking at the descendant tab for RIN 746 and watch for birthdates out of order like a parent younger than a child. Then do the same thing for RIN 336. You should detect a repeating descendancy like someone being their own grandfather. When you find it, then unlink as necessary and the loop should be broken.

Re: [LegacyUG] Question about adding info
Rich,Just a side-note to your question. Right click on any of the field labels in the Family tab such as Died and a window titled Customize Display will open. You can change what is displayed in any of the five fields. Sounds like you currently have Cause of Death set for one of them but you can display any of the available data items by clicking on the ellipsis and selecting the item you wish.Ron Taylor --- On Sun, 3/3/13, Richard Falzini rfalz...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Richard Falzini rfalz...@yahoo.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Question about adding info To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Date: Sunday, March 3, 2013, 9:06 AM Hello, When I look at the screen of any given person in their box it always gives the option to add DTH CAU for cause of death.How do I edit this info, as I recently found the cause of death on several family members Thanks Rich in Cleveland 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).

Hi Brian, I get this message as well because I have several instances of intermarriages - cousins marrying cousins. The way to stop it is to go to Options Customize Display.

[LegacyUG] Census Head Of Household Question
Luggers: I have an ancestor who was a supervisor in an asylum for the insane per the 1880 census. The first person listed for the dwelling is the superintendent of the facility. When I write a citation for the census, is he the head of the household or would I show the name of the facility as the household name (i.e., McLean Asylum for the Insane Household, 1880 U.S. Census, etc.)?

Re: [LegacyUG] I'm getting an Endless Loop message
A real loop, where someone is their own grandfather, will continue no matter what option you chose. Repeating lines can be eliminated as Terri suggested. I do have a few old royal pedigrees. When I try to do an Ancestor report, it will show This individual has now been processed 3 times. You could be in an endless loop. I set the warn again after to 10 and click Continue Processing. It will stop again, showing another RIN that has been encountered multiple times. I set it to 20 and again it stops. I set it to 30 and again it stops. I set it to 40 and finally it will finish. That means that I descend from someone in the database more than 30 different ways. I set it to 31 and it finishes also so the magic number of duplicate encounters for my lineeage is 30. If I had tried higher and higher numbers and never found a limit to the duplicates being encountered, then I would know that there is a true endless loop. For example, if I had entered the max for the field of 250 and it still bounced back then there is probably a loop and not simply multiple lineages to the same person. I doubt that there are real pedigrees with more than 50 duplicate encounters and that would most likely require a very large database. A typical family file may only have a few of these duplicate lineages. Anyway, by noting the RIN displayed, you can investigate descendants of that RIN to see if there are any parents younger than their children. Those are the real loops.Ron Taylor --- On Sun, 3/3/13, Terri Brown ridge...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Terri Brown ridge...@yahoo.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] I'm getting an Endless Loop message To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Date: Sunday, March 3, 2013, 1:28 PM Hi Brian, I get this message as well because I have several instances of intermarriages - cousins marrying cousins.

I don't know if this can answer your question but here is the 1880 US Census Instructions to Enumerators, see at: https://usa.ipums.org/usa/voliii/inst1880.shtml ...The word family, for the purposes of the census, includes persons living alone, as previously described, equally with families in the ordinary sense of that term, and also all larger aggregations of people having only the tie of a common roof and table. A hotel, with all its inmates, constitutes but one family within the meaning of this term. A hospital, a prison, an asylum is equally a family for the purposes of the census... ...In entering names in column 3, the name of the father, mother, or other ostensible head of the family (in the case of hotels, jails, etc., the landlord, jailer, etc.) is to be entered first of the family.

[LegacyUG] I'm getting an Endless Loop message
Well, I did some checking and following the MRIN #s, the ancestry of each of the couple, converge somewhere back among the generations. Just to repeat, the problem /only /occurs on the Descendant Tab, when I hit Go to father, the message occurs as I scroll up the fathers list. I also should say What I'm doing is creating a Biblical Tree, written following relationships found in Genesis, these relationships were complicated, as biblical people often married 1st or 2nd cousins and share the same ancestry. My problem occurs with the ancestry of Abraham, the further back I go, everybody is related to everybody else. I don't think I'll be able to fix this, through relationship corrections, so my question is how can I eliminate the endless loop' message? I've set the warn again in # encounters to the Max 250, but the message still pops up. Is there a way to turn off the endless loop' message, on just THIS tree file and not my other trees? Thanks again, Brian 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).
