I'm replying to this just to point out that I could read your message. I 
checked my spam folder where there were several messages from you that had 
been sent there because they were unreadable.

OT It seems, however that this problem does not affect Yahoo's own mailing 
lists (Yahoogroups) where messages sent from Yahoo addresses still seem to 
turn up.

Half of my tree is Norwegian where the woman does not taken her husband's
name.  (At least not until late 1800 or early 1900's depending on the
area.)  I went to Customize > #2​Data Entry > #2.8Rule for generating
default married names and using the drop down box, selected the first
option of 0-none- don't generate married names.

Thanks seems to answered the situation for me as my Norwegian side is in
it's own family file.  Because of several major cultural differences, I
have my German side in it's own file.  This 2.8 option works in the family
file only, not global.  So if you have only one family file for all your
ancestors, this option most likely will not work for you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Descendant Narrative Book report and Shared Events

[Linda Greethurst]

Leon and Cathy,
   Thank you for your thoughts regarding the printing with shared events,
especially for census.  I sort of suspected that I might be getting lazy
and wanted Legacy to read my mind instead of what I selected!

 I am playing with and learning how to use the Shared Events to see if I
like using them- -  and have discovered this frequent repetition is one
factor that is not necessarily one I will continue to choose for census.
However, the shared events certainly is great for establishing individuals
and roles for bapatism sponsors, or marriage sponsors, or even pall
bearers, witnesses for a will, etc.

Linda

[LegacyUG] Sorry for the attachments

[Ed Ladendorf]

It was pointed out to me, in a private email,  that I needed to change
email providers because Yahoo sent posts appear as attachments to everyone.
I know the subject of attachments has been discussed many times, but I only
read a couple of them because I thought the only people who saw the
attachments was people using Yahoo. It was explained to me that sending
posts *FROM *Yahoo was the problem. So I have a new email address for this
list. I apologize for the problem.

Thank you, list members, for the help you have given me. I appreciate all
replies to my questions, even if it's only an idea to think about.

*Webinar Description*

Geoff finally did it! He took his first step into the world of DNA and had
his two maternal grandparents tested (autosomal tests from AncestryDNA). He
recently received the testing results and has waited to explore them – for
the first time – in front of a LIVE webinar audience.

You are invited to watch live as his DNA results are revealed. He is hoping
that somehow DNA will bring down one of his longest-standing brick walls.

On hand to interpret and explain what Geoff discovers will be DNA expert,
webinar presenter, and yourDNAguide.com’s Diahan Southard. Geoff has kept
the results hidden from her as well. The result will be a live and
unscripted session giving DNA neophyte (like Geoff) viewers a first-hand
look at what to expect from their first autosomal DNA test.

Hi Brian,

Good answer but I think you're missing a few zeroes ... 0.001%

And for the people who don't care, it IS important - despite your belief
that the rest of the world get high speed Internet connections and the size
of message is irrelevant - it IS relevant - from one who doesn't often have
access to high speed unlimited internet connection.

Thank you to Millenia and this user group for continuing to think of the

This is a good question but the answer is absolutely not. These LUG messages
are text only and when compared to the amount of audio and video streaming
on the Internet, the text messages probably comprise less than .001% of the
available bandwidth.

(The .001% is purely a guess but based on knowledge of bandwidth

While stationed in Virginia so he could work in Washington DC I was born at
Bethesda Naval Hospital in Maryland and taken "home" to Virginia days later.
When I enter the birth event I used the Virginia as location and the
hospital as the address of the event.

 

Lots of questions to ask. I guess I'll just make a master list and toss a

Re: [LegacyUG] Question about online "Sources" and marriage, divorce, remarriage for last names

[Evelyn ..]

I see a couple of issues in your question:
1. women who do not take their husband's last name upon marriage
2. people who have multiple variations of spelling of last name.

When I run into these questions, I have to ask myself what the point is of
recording the information and how to record enough information so someone
else (possibly me) can understand what is going on.

1. if a woman doesn't take her husband's last name at marriage then she
will just be known officially by her maiden name. In the name list it shows
women by both their maiden name and by ALL their potential married names.
If I didn't know that she went by her maiden name, or if I didn't know her
maiden name, I could browse the husband's last name and her name would show
up. It doesn't hurt. In reports, I can make a specific note stating she
didn't change her last name.

In fact, there are many cultures where neither the men nor the women
changed their last names upon marriage.

2. a last name that has various spellings. I pick one variation as the main
family name. Then for each variation I find, I make an entry in the alias
section. That way all of the alias names as well as the 'standardized' name
show up in the name list and I print the alias names in my reports.

[LegacyUG] Question about online "Sources" and marriage, divorce, remarriage for last names

[Curt Barnes]

How should I deal with information that looks to corroborate 99% of the info
I have on an individual or family found on sites like Genealogy Trails,
Tennessee Genealogical Society (TNGS) and others . They say they only
transcribing genealogical and historical data and occasionally there are
references to books and other substantiating sources.

 

 

How do I deal with folks names for marriage, divorce and remarriage. I have
several women who married, took the 1st husband's name then sometime later
remarried taking the 2nd husband's name. Did not change it after death or
divorce of their husband's. I input this into legacy but it converts the
women's last name to her maiden name in the second marriage. Now this
presents questions when a marriage certificate for the 2nd marriage does not
show her 1st husband's name as matching.

 

I guess this leads to another possibility. How to deal with women who
maintain the maiden name thru, 1 , 2, or more marriages. My great
grandmothers maiden name was Henninger but all her life and 2 marriages and
3 children used Heneger as her last name. So far, in Legacy I have been
using Heneger for her name but questions have already come up by others who
seen it. For myself I just know the story but how would anyone else? On top
of that her name Trula (and variations) of Heneger,  Henenger,  Hamilton,
etc on various documents. Makes it fun but then she was a hoot up until her
death at 96.

 

 

 

Thanks in advance

Curt

Re: [LegacyUG] Autocapitalizing location?

[Brian L. Lightfoot]

Prior to a user submitting a problem report to support, I would think it a
good idea for the user to post the problem on the LUG to verify if other
users can replicate the problem and to avoid the cause being isolated to
just one user. Once verified by others, then it's a good idea for the
original poster to submit the problem report to support.

By the way, if somebody else beats the original poster to the report
submission to support, then it's no big deal. No points, awards, or cash is
given out to the user who first submits a report nor to any user who submits
the most reports. You don't even get an "attaboy/attagirl".

Selecting "don't change what I enter" is an option, however it is a

Legacy's autocapitalization that should be logged as a bug.

Note that if you've chosen Initial Caps, once you enter one capital, it

That's a weird auto-capitalisation though.

If you're using Legacy 8, you could go to Customiuse>Option 3.6 and
check "Don't change what I enter", but this could be problematic if
you aren't careful about capitalisation when ent ering other locations.

location list, to check that all the entries are correct. I often find that 
when I have entered a location I have missed a letter, or reversed a couple of 
letters, or that I need to find out more information about a place. 

 

“Don’t change what I enter” is really useful because family names/ surnames can 
have a mix of lower and upper case, e.g de la Pole, de Vallibus, etc. so while 
I set the program so that the first name is automatically capitalised, I want 
the family/surname to be as I enter it. If I make an error, it is easy to fix 
by editing the surname list.

Hey all thanks for confirming this.  Is there a Legacy Support staff on the 
thread who can log this issue?

Selecting "don't change what I enter" is an option, however it is a workaround 
fix, not a solution to the root cause.  Somethings amiss with Legacy's 
autocapitalization that should be logged as a bug.

I could fix it by going into the Location Master List, find the entry, edit 
both the short name and long name to be correct, and save it.

Note that if you've chosen Initial Caps, once you enter one capital, it reverts 
to Don't change what I enter as Legacy assumes you know what you're doing once 
you add capitals. See the Help which explains this.

That's a weird auto-capitalisation though.

H, does April 15 have anything to do with it? :)



If you're using Legacy 8, you could go to Customiuse>Option 3.6 and 
check "Don't change what I enter", but this could be problematic if 
you aren't careful about capitalisation when ent ering other locations.

Re: [LegacyUG] Autocapitalizing location?

[Evelyn ..]

What has happened to me is that the first time I typed the location, I did
something odd with capitalization. Then from that time on, the "odd"
capitalization entry in the Master List corrected all future entries of
that location to the "odd" capitalization.

I could fix it by going into the Location Master List, find the entry, edit
both the short name and long name to be correct, and save it.

Don't change what I enter is a solution.

reverts to Don't change what I enter as Legacy assumes you know what
