[LegacyUG] Master Source Setting - Unpublished or Published?

2016-04-03 Thread Brian L. Lightfoot
While going over my customized settings, I noticed the following item under
7.2 Master Source Defaults, Unpublished or Published. I couldn't find any
specific info in the help files about this particular setting. Can anyone
tell me what the implications are especially for census records, vital
records, photographs, interviews, etc.?

It's useful when you don't have solid primary evidence to answer your question. 
You enter your assertions and from what sources. The final product is a 
statement documenting your reasoning why you made the decision you did in 
answering your question usually from non primary evidence.
Useful for end of line ancestors, brick walls, questionable relationships, 
facts etc.

It does take time to enter the data and to analyze it which is the downside. 
The upside is years from  now you have a document that tells you why this 
choice was made with the documentation  supporting it. 

Watch the tutorials and see if this is for you.

go away. And if you have files on RootsWeb, be careful. They lost tons of data

On the Family View page, there is a row of icons below the vital statistics of 
each individual. The icon that is a picture frame with two images inside is the 
Media Gallery. Click on that icon.

In Legacy 7.5, next click on the icon for Picture, Sound, Video, or File.

In Legacy 8, next click on the tab Add Media, and a drop-down menu lists the 
types of media you can link. The list includes Picture, Sound, Video, Document, 
Internet Website, and Scan a Picture.

The original message to the list is in the attachment.

This action is required because of the DMARC Reject/Quarantine Policy
imposed by some email providers. Users who want to send messages
without conversion to attachments should use a different email address
for their subscription.

Known providers for free email accounts whose emails do not require
this conversion include gmail.com and hotmail.com.  Many other email

Hi Glenny,
Thanks for the post. I haven't heard of Evindentia before, so I decided to 
check it out. It sounds like a great way to compare proof, but it seems like it 
would take forever to actually get all the information into the program. Am I 
missing something? I'll admit that I only took a rather quick look at it.

Good Morning,
Linking files is an ok idea, but if your main hard drive dies or you 
move files, the link becomes invalid.


That said, here is what to do - this also works for cloud accounts such 
as dropbox.


If, for instance, I want to link a pdf with a list of folks in Nebraska 
that are part of my family, here is what to do.

1. Locate the file using Win Explorer
2. It is on my external Drive G in a folder.
3. Right click on the file and copy the name
AncS-AirAllegPA.pdf
Then Right click and copy the path:
G:\Ship-Air1914-62/

Combine the two:
G:\Ship-Air1914-62/AncS-AirAllegPA.pdf
Copy the link to your Person in the Notes Section of Legacy

If the file is in your DropBox.
Open Win Expl
C:\Users\MarthaAG\Dropbox
C:\Users\MarthaAG\Dropbox\Legacy

If you have a separate folder for Documents in your DB Legacy folder, 
the path is as above.


If the file is online, access the file and copy the link, inserting it 
into your notes.
But, be careful, the fluid nature of the web tells us that stuff can go 
away. And if you have files on RootsWeb, be careful. They lost tons of
