Re: [LegacyUG] one Question
I don't believe you can change the gender if a marriage record exists or if there are any children attached to the individual. In order to change genders if this were the case you must first detach the person from the marriage or remove any children. Also keep in mind there cannot be two members of the same sex attached to the a marriage record.

[LegacyUG] Ordering Social Security records
Does anyone have a successful way to search records to come up with a list of people who would be good prospects for ordering their Social Security records? I know they would have had to have died after 1936. I'm not sure if women registered or not or if everyone registered or if it was just a random thing for registration. I don't want to pay $29 just to find out the person never applied for social security or registered with the system. They're not always on the SSDI because if the family didn't apply for death benefits, they wouldn't be on there. Anyone have a good way to create such a list to consider? I tried but it was too general - too big. I have the deluxe version. Feel free to reply privately if you have any attachments to share that couldn't be sent thru the list. Thanks!!

Re: [LegacyUG] Strange behaviour
It is not a bug, when you remove the tag they are no longer on the list at all. That is why Legacy issues the message and has to re-find someone who is on the tag list.

[LegacyUG] Strange behaviour
Thanks to everyone for the advice and especially to Sherry for pointing out the easy way to do this. However, it does look like a bug. Editing the first person in the tagged list and then untagging them puts them at the end of the list. I'll report it shortly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Organization of Photos, Scanned Documents and etc.
I use a surname format. Each surname gets a folder in SS Pics (Scharpf-Saar) folder. Then the picture gets named for what it is, ie Smith, John - obituary, Smith, John - grave, etc. If there are two people with the same name, I name it Smith, John 1835 - obituary (the 1835 represents the birth year of the person). I have 417 surname folders with thousands of files. Perhaps this system won't work in the future, but for now it works great for me. Just another way that's very simple.
