[LegacyUG] direct male descendants

[Valerie Garton]

I am wanting to  make a list of the known direct male descendants in order
to see who I can get to take a YDNA test. Is this possible and if so what do
I do.

 

Cheers from Valerie Garton [nee Vaughan] in sunny Sydney. DNA - A086848,
T756083, H947365, MyHeritage & gedmatch

Re: [LegacyUG] Does Legacy export pictures in a gedcom?

[Brian Kelly]

Media is a choice because that tells Legacy to include the GEDCOM tag 
MEDI and the text of the computer file path and filename that points to 
where the media file is located.


The MEDI tag and path lets other programs know there is a media file 
linked to the item and where to look for the file. It does not include a 
copy of the file though. That is why you have to send those media files 
separately.

docs? What extensions are meant by "MEDI Media"?

Thanks again,

will still show as originally linked.

Any persons or pictures in your new gedcom that were not in your
linked MyHeritage file, will have no pictures linked to them, so
you will need to upload more pictures and link them to your new
MyHeritage file.

It gets really complicated if you upload new gedcoms often,
because, unless you keep detailed notes on which of your
MyHeritage files have which pictures, you must keep them all!

If you delete a MyHeritage file, all pictures associated with it
are no longer linked, if they are retained at all!

If you do upload often, it is important to let any members know
that they should access _*only the newest MyHeritage **file
*_you have created if they want to see any pictures!

Bummer!

Cheers,

Hi,
I exported several gedcoms I made in Legacy to MyHeritage,
choosing Myheritage in the drop down menu, and choosing
everything I thought I could include in a gedcom. In all my
attempts, pictures from the Media Gallery never showed up in
Myheritage. What are the settings to make this happen? I hope
I'm making sense.
