maybe I should just call Legacy Support.  I need to focus on learning
how to cite my sources. I am disabled, I really thought legacy support
would have jumped in by now to offer a solution.  Thank you Ron for
always offering help.

Re: [LegacyUG] still have a duplicate

Ok, I unlinked my g.grandfather and still a problem, so it must be his
adopted family.  The tree repeats three times when I do descendants,
it makes my family look so much bigger than it is.

Re: [LegacyUG] still have a duplicate

Ok, I have a g.grandfather who was adopted and raised by another
family, he has a different surname than the family that adopted him.
He married the 1st cousin of this family.  I found his biological
parents names and linked him to the biological parents. When I saw
that I had duplicates, I deleted the bio parents and linked him back
to the adopted parents.  I still have duplicates, So that is why I
think that my g.grandfather is the cause of having duplicates.

[LegacyUG] fixing duplicates

2012-12-11 Thread MJ SA

I did a report to Find Duplicates, it seems I have a lot of them.  I
am not sure about other naming traditions, but Italians repeat names
constantly. So I see the duplicates by the RIN Numbers.  Although when
I look at my index of my surnames I do not see duplicates. So is
looking at the RIN numbers on the duplicate report  the correct way to
fix my tree?

Re: [LegacyUG] Sharing Family Tree with relatives that don't have legacy

2012-12-10 Thread MJ SA

When I create a descendants report to email, the family  the entire
family repeats, 3x's, the same descendants, in 3 different colors.
This happens when I create it from my 3 times great grandparents. Does
that make sense?

I went to the marriage date, that appears on the bar below the man and
woman, opened it  up and added an event, marriage record and added the
image. I wish I could see an example of a marriage record on legacy.

[LegacyUG] adding images

I added a marriage record and I am not sure I did it correctly. So I
thought it was best to send an email and ask everyone how I am
supposed to add images, before I create a mess :)

Re: [LegacyUG] Sharing Family Tree with relatives that don't have legacy

A few of my relatives would like to see the family tree as a nice
chart, but these are elderly people, it is amazing they know how to
use the computer as it is.   There has to be another way.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

New Problem.  When I close Legacy on my desktop it closes to Backup to
another folder I had created and than I set it to backup to the Data
Folder and it goes to the folder I created, not the data folder.  How
do I change this?

2012-11-23 Thread MJ SA

I just got to the Windows XP desktop and followed your (Ron)
directions. It worked!   I do see the .fdb and I had always wondered
why the file picture was different.

As for Windows 8, it is awful! I got some records from Italy today and
tried to open them, awful, awful.

Anyone else using Windows 8?


Now what should I do next?

I have a desktop with Windows XP
The laptop that crashed and am waiting for someone to fix is Windows 7
The new laptop is Windows 8, but hoping to return it and go back to Windows 7

Sorry it took so long to respond, was not feeling well enough to get

Thank you all, again, you are so helpful.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

Ward, when you save your family tree to a thumb drive, how do it? Do
you copy if from the Data folder?  or export to a gedcom or legacy
folder?

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

Maybe I should say I want to "save" my family tree to my "thumb drive"
after I add to it?  I do use multiple computers at two different
homes. I really can't recall ever having this problem in the past.  My
laptop crashed so I am glad I was backing it up or saving it to the
thumb drive.

I do name my family tree as the date i worked on it. At this point I
have so many backups, saves and who knows what on my computers and I
am probably using all the wrong words I am going to need to do a major
clean up of the older files.

I still don't understand why sometimes when i open my Legacy, my
family tree does not appear.

You are all so patient and I thank you for all your help.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

I was doing a bunch of searches, than I did the search modified by
date and thank God it has the time on it, so I found it and this did
have the additions made last night. Thank you so much

Before I do anything, I want to make sure I do this correctly.
Options-General- I chose Open Last file used automatically.

Now on the various ways to save it on the computer and my thumb
drives, so I can put it on my new laptop (Windows 8). I am not
shutting this computer until I get it right.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

I found it on a new thumb drive I got last night. the strange thing
is, the new death date I entered did not save last night.

So on my new laptop, I have been testing Legacy. I saved it in the
Data folder and did the other tips on saving you all gave me.  Since
now I know where the file is.  One time it opened with my tree, a few
times it did not and I also got a few errors messages.

At least now I will have the one thumb drive to back up my family file
to, so I will be able to locate it.  As for the errors, I will have to
email legacy and ask what they are.

Thank you for all your help.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

I know the one I found is the one I saved right before Hurricane Sandy
hit us, the only thing I added last night was the death date of a
g..g.uncle someone found for me who died in WWI.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

so now i am on my new laptop with Windows 8, I downloaded Legacy and
put the family tree on this computer also.  There is only the sample
file in data. I put in my thumb drive and I got an alert that there is
issues with the thumb drive, it is scanning it now. What a bummer this
is for me. But still on my other computer when I open llegacy my
family file should just open up, like it did last night,  This is very
frustrating.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy problems

I went to Data, there is about 10 files there and the last date was
Sept 9. 2012.

I keep having the same problems, ever since Legacy updated to the
newest version.

[LegacyUG] Legacy problems

Why is it every time I back up my family tree onto a thumb drive, the
next day when I open legacy, my family tree is not there?  This
happens all the time.   How do I find the family tree that I set to
open every time I open legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] filing system for genealogy

C.N.
   since a picture is worth a thousand words, I uploaded some pictures to my 
blog about organizing documents, you can find them 
here: http://foundingfamilylines.blogspot.com/search/label/jump%20drives  If 
you have any questions, glad to help further.  I find that with Legacy I keep 
relevant documents on a jump drive that I back up to drop box.  I sort by 
surname, then family

Subject: [LegacyUG] filing system for genealogy

I have been using the Legacy genealogy program for many years, but I am now 
struggling with how to think through scanning all of my papers to become 
paperless by 40 feet of papers as I prepare to move from my home to an 
apartment with much less room.

The scanner I have purchased, an Epson GT-S50 which uses the Nuance Paper Port 
11.

I don't have any question about the scanner or program, but about how to 
organize my papers so that I will e able to find each page I scan.  Yes, this 
is an organizational question!  I am open to all suggestions to find one that 
will suit me best.

I am 74 years young and I do struggle with electronics as I was not born with 
any pc genes, as my grandchildren seem to have:)

If there are earlier discussion on this subject, please advise so that 
information is not repeated, or please e-mail me directly to:
fergusresearc...@gmail.com

Thanking you in advance!

If you have an Apple MAC you may be interested in a product called CrossOver 
which enables (some) Windows programs to run on a MAC without requiring 
virtualization software such as Parallels.  I’ve successfully run Legacy on my 
MacBook Pro using CrossOver.  The product is being offered free just for today 
(31 October 2012) and can be obtained from http://www.codeweavers.com/

Re: [LegacyUG] Question regarding website building

2012-10-29 Thread MJ

I have chosen to only list the dead on my blog, so anything I publish ends when 
the living generation begins, and to me it's not a matter of privacy but of 
respect for the living.  I am very open about the details of my life, the 
places I've lived, career etc., some of my cousins aren't.  I have just found 
it easier to not offend them by only dealing with the dead in public.  That 
said, when I share a gedcom with others or receive one I really, really, hate 
getting them with 200 "living" people in the index.  I find them of little 
value.  I don't need to know that living has 5 living children.  I don't share 
my personal gedcom's with just anyone because I list everyone in them with all 
the facts and documents I can find.
 
Have a great day!

Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Question regarding website building


I think this bottle has been passed around many times before. As many of the 
other replies may so indicate, the choice of “Living” over the actual name 
seems to be the politically correct answer. But as what little hair I have left 
grows more grey and my eyes get dimmer, I find myself pondering this over and 
over myself. I can certainly understand omitting just about all details about a 
living person but why is it not prudent to just show their names?
 
Before you answer, consider that their birth is a matter of public record, 
there was probably a newspaper publication naming their parents when they were 
born, probably a wedding announcement giving names of parents, siblings, and 
other relatives published in their local city and elsewhere. Their names are 
easily found by looking in the white pages of a phone book which not only gives 
the phone number but their residential address. Even if you’re not sure of the 
exact names of children then a quick click and visit to Spokeo.com reveals 
quite a bit about the parents including the names of their children.
 
My point is that all this information is readily available and open to the 
public but for some reason the direction that genealogy has taken in the past 
20 years is to hide even their names. Someone tell me why and please do it 
without using the word “privacy” because their lives have all been public so 
far. Just wondering.

Hello,
 I have been up dating my web site I have made with Legacy, and at the 
current moment I do not list names, birth dates, marriage dates, etc.
of any living individuals.
 
when the name of a living person should be displayed it says LIVING.
 
I wanted to ask should I keep my site like that, or would it be ok to show the 
name such as Richard Falzini but suppress all personal data from the viewers of 
my site?
 
I look forward to all input regarding my question
 
Thanks

[LegacyUG] What area of research

2012-10-26 Thread MJ SA

I know this is not about Legacy and maybe someone already did this.
Since we are doing genealogy, has anyone asked for a list of areas
they are researching.  Who knows what connections we find on this
thread,

Re: [LegacyUG] Ipad App for legacy

2012-10-25 Thread MJ SA

Thanks everyone. As you may have guessed I have some disabilities and
I do need something very light weight. Although i have had legacy for
a few years, I don't know how to use the program so well.  Than my
laptop crashed 2 nights ago.  Thankfully, I backed up my family tree
on a thumb drive.

I get so confused with all these computers.  I wonder if the ULTRABOOK
that I plan to buy tomorrow with Windows 8 will have enough memory/gig
etc to run Legacy, my Itunes, hold all my pictures, documents.

So if anyone wants to suggest a good ULTRABOOK for me, I would greatly
appreciate it.  I would wait to get the new IPAD, but I will be on bed
rest after a surgery on November 5th and does everyone really want me
to ask a million questions on how to run FAMILIES :)

Re: [LegacyUG] Ipad App for legacy

Thanks Don, but that is not my question.  My question, if I was going
to buy the IPAD is how to transfer the data, because at Best Buy they
said data could not be transferred, only pictures. A new IPAD is
coming out on Nov 6. I am going to stick with what I know, I will buy
an ultrabook with Windows 8

Re: [LegacyUG] combine family trees

LOL! Richard, I have no idea what you are talking about.  As for
combining the trees it is an entirely separate family tree, no
matching surnames. I did this separate because i did not know how we
are related, now I do, I can add them

Re: [LegacyUG] Search for a city name

No, couldn't find it. The reason I remember it, was the other day I
went onto family search to look for the marriage record and the images
were down.  This is going to get a whole lot worse for me when I get
the Ipad :)

Re: [LegacyUG] Search for a city name

Of course i can't remember, a normal person would put it in the year
she got married, which was 1900, I don't even have a marriage year of
1900. Bang head on wall!

  I can't find marriage and marriage place, when I figure it out, do I
click FInd First, create list?

I can wait til you get back home.  Thank you for responding :)

Re: [LegacyUG] Measuring distance between two places

2012-10-17 Thread MJ

Monique, I sure do miss your classes. You know Legacy hasn't been working at all for me since the move to China, all I get is errors, wish you were here! I am going to have send an email with the error messages to tech support, it was working great before I left. Dont know if it's the vpn I have to use here or what. Have a great day! Mary Jane http://allwrappedup4u.blogspot.com/http://foundingfamilylines.blogspot.comFrom: unique64 Riley To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 9:42 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Measuring distance between two places

Here are the instructions as per the Help in Legacy:

Distance and Bearing Calculator (Deluxe Edition
only)

The Distance and Bearing Calculator is used to find the
distance and compass direction between any two points on earth specified by a
latitude and longitude. (See Latitude and Longitude for
more information on this subject.) The calculator uses great circle spherical
trigonometry to figure the shortest distance and direction between
points.

The Distance and Bearing Calculator is reached by choosing
Distance and Bearing Calculator from the Tools menu. It is also
available by clicking the
Calculator button on the Master Location List,
Adding or Editing Master Locations screen, and Address screen.

Finding the Distance Between Two Points
To find
the distance and bearing from one point to another:
1. In the Latitude and Longitude of First Location box,
enter the two coordinates of the starting location.
2. In the Latitude and Longitude of Second Location
box, enter the two coordinates of the ending location.
3. Click the Calculate Distance and Bearing button. The
distance between the points and the bearing from the first location to the
second is displayed below the button.

(The
latitude and longitude must be in the form of degrees, minutes and seconds. The
degrees must be between 0 and 90, if a latitude and between 0 and 180, if a
longitude. The minutes and seconds must be between 0 and 59. The seconds can
have up to three decimal places after it. e.g. 681234.293)

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy on Ipad, how is it?

I would like to be able to work on my family tree, like fixing my
sources, on the app on the ipad.  I will be on bed rest for a few
weeks, that is why I am thinking the IPAD maybe the way to go, but
when Ancestry told me you can't do any research on it, just to view
your tree, it made me think, what other programs can't be used
properly  on the IPAD.

Re: [LegacyUG] What to do with genealogical files after death of compi ler

I can't believe the horror stories I have read in this thread. How
cruel to throw out so much work.  That man whose children threw out 40
years of work, I had tears in my eyes, how disrespectful!   Last night
my nephew said to put it in my will where all the records are and to
leave it to him, he promises to put it in some back room to collect
dust, someday someone will want to see it.

Re: [LegacyUG] how I site my sources

It was an older version of Legacy.  Actually, I put the notes in my
Events/Facts!
So if someone were to look for Tommaso Giunta  birth year 1873 (95)
that means the birth record of 1873, is number 95. Does that make
sense? I have a feeling I am going to be redoing my sources also.

I live in NY, I am 2nd generation Sicilian and 3rd generation Italian.
 I also have the smallest Italian/Sicilian family in the world :)  So
it is easy to write in the note, got this marriage record at this
Church name in Brooklyn, or got this note from the FHC microfilm
number 154678 etc.

Re: [LegacyUG] how I site my sources

My question was, if doing it this way is the reason my tree got messed
up when it upgraded to Legacy 7.5.

This format has worked for my family and they all say it has made the
research much easier.  So again, I will ask, if this is the reason my
tree had errors when it upgraded to Legacy. I had a marriage date for
once couple, copied to two other people. One family that had 4
children, now have 8 children etc.

If anyone can answer the question, that would be great!

[LegacyUG] how I site my sources

2012-10-13 Thread MJ SA

I've made notes as to where I got my records.  So this is how I write
the note, example

Tommaso Giunta
14 Nov 1833 (95)   Piazza

95 is the index number or if noted the page number I found the record.
 I think this maybe why I had problems upgrading to the new Legacy.
But this system works for me, when I need to go back and look at a
record. Is this a mistake on my part? Should I do it differently?

Re: [LegacyUG] Immigration/Emigration Event, what's the difference?

It doesn't look like my response was sent properly.
I have the same thing in one of my families, they went back and forth
to Italy multiple times.  I just made a note that this is the year
when they officially settled in Brooklyn.

On my Grandma and Uncle, I was told they went back to Sicily for 5
years, so on the notes I said this is what I was told and this is what
the passport says.

Re: [LegacyUG] Immigration vs Emigration events, clarification please

I have the same thing in one of my families, they went back and forth
to Italy multiple times.  I just made a note that this is the year
when they officially settled in Brooklyn.

On my Grandma and Uncle, I was told they went back to Sicily for 5
years, so on the notes I said this is what I was told and this is what
the passport says.
