Re: [LegacyUG] moving from source to event

[Cathy Pinner]

Hi Anne,
Can you clarify what you are trying to do?
1)  Do you mean that you want to move census and military sources from
the Unspecified field in the Assigned Sources to the specific events?
That is, you are wanting to source Census and Military Events with the
sources that are currently in the unspecified field?
Or are you wanting to make new events (and presumably also attach the
source to these new events)?

2) Do you mean that you've found the Advanced Sourcing Tool and can see
how to use it to apply the source to the Birth, Death etc but can't see
how to use it for Events?
It's a very blunt tool for specific events/facts as you can't even
restrict by Event type.
You'd do better to load the source on the source clipboard, create a
search list of the people who have the relevant event and then use the
Search List/Name list Sources tab to go through the list and apply the
Source Clipboard where appropriate.

Re: [LegacyUG] How best to keep track

[Pat Hickin]

Thanks, everybody.  I like the idea of using an event for keeping track.
And I could make all sorts of comments in the notes field.  This group is
so great!!

Re: [LegacyUG] Showing Event Photos on Webpages

[Cathy Pinner]

Jay,
You didn't read what I wrote.

The Legacy webpage generator will change filenames from names with a mix
of upper and lower case letters and spaces to names in all lower case
with underscores instead of spaces. You just have to choose the right
options although the elimination of spaces seems to be automatic.

[LegacyUG] moving from source to event

[mi...@juno.com]

Hello Group,
 I have Legacy 8.00439 and would like to move all my census and military 
records from sources (where the original ged.com put them long ago, to events.

I see how to move from sources to birth, death, and marriage events, and to 
notes, but that screen doesn't seem to move them to the regular events/facts.

Looks like I'll be doing them one by one, yes?
Anne

Re: [LegacyUG] How best to keep track

[ChasH]

I like the event method that has been suggested. In addition to marking
it "private" and "exclude from potential problems", you may also want to
exclude "Show a description field" & "show a place'?  So I just record a
date. The date represents the last time I checked/verified FamilySearch
Family Tree with Legacy Family Tree. In addition, I then customized one
of the fields on the family page with my "FSFT & LFT checked" Event. I
use the display name, "FS Checked". Now anytime I am on the family page
I can easily see the last time I did a through review between the two.
Of course if needed, once you have your event set up you could search
for that event-with a date or without a date etc. or go the tagging route.

The To-Do list might suit your purpose, or using Events as Wendy suggested.

Personally, I'd go with Events but the best thing is for you to try both
and decide which suits you best.  Remember that you can mark an Event as
Private or to be excluded from Potential Problem alerts, either on an
individual level or globally for a particular Event Name which you might
want to do.
