 Thanks for the thought.  The surname is unusual; I have found three major 
"trunks."  One came to the colonies in the mid-1600s from France; the second 
came to New England in the late 1700s from France and the third comes from 
eastern Europe in the 1900s.  I can find no link between the first and second 
groups here in the colonies/U.S.  On the other hand, a member of the first and 
second groups lived in the same building in 1900 in Portland ME; what did they 
say to each other?

Hi Howland. If you have a somewhat unusual surname, it is sometimes better if 
you only search the surname. Then you can scroll the hits, and possibly see 
what might be a match for your subject. Just a thought.

Howland,
The Find A Grave search algorithm only matches on EXACT equals. When I get No 
Records Found I click on the Refine Last Search option in the left column and 
modify the fields used in the initial attempt. I've found that Middle Names 
cause many of my misses. Also adding Location Details helps. 


If you haven't done so watch Geoff's "Discover the New Legacy 9" webinar. He 
shows several good hints for working with Find A Grave 
(https://familytreewebinars.com/download.php?webinar_id=634).


Happy Searching,
Rick

Subject: Find A Grave Link

 Can someone explain how Legacy Family Tree links to Find A Grave top 
search for an individual's grave?  I searched for someone and had no hits.  But 
the search for his spouse was successful and I could link from her page to her 
spouse's page to find information and a Find A Grave  memorial number.
 I am using Legacy 9.0.0.169 and Windows 10.

Re: [LegacyUG] Find A Grave Link

2017-05-15 Thread CE WOOD 
The FAG search function leaves much to be desired. It needs an alternative 
index of surnames in which a search for a last name variant links to the same 
person. Who ever contributes the memorial can choose only one name variant - 
with or without the "de", "van", "von", etc., to say nothing of the many 
different ways a name was spelled over time and even in the same document!


The problem is with FAG, not Legacy.

Right now the match has to be exact.  There is a suggestion in the queue for
the programmers to consider to add a "fuzzy" search which will pick up close
matches.  It is common to have more information than Find A Grave does or
slightly different information.
