RE: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
Hi everyone,
Maybe this might be a good subject for a future Webinar. 'How Legacy's To-Do
list, Research Log and Calendar will help you to keep track of your
genealogical research'
This would be great follow on to the forthcoming Karen Clifford Webinar
'Organising for Success'.
Just an idea!

Connie,
As part of section 3, Document Work, submit a research plan (one page or
less) describing the first steps for continuing research to resolve the problem
defined in 3_c. {Standard 5}. You should
1) base the plan on clues found within the document and on sound research
methods, standard genealogical sources, and material specific to the area, time
period, and subject of this records; and
2) identify fully any publications, personnel, repositories, or records
(original, in print, or electronic) you would normal consult in following that
plan.
I really would like to use the Legacy research calendar because it really looks
nice but it is too spread out. I won't be able to get my 10 sources on one
page.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
Great suggestion, Ken!
Is their anyone already using Karen Clifford's method? I looked at it on
her website and my only question is... If you are using RINs and MRINs to
file your paper files, I guess you can never compact your file but
reassigning unused RIN/MRIN numbers? Also, I have 7800 people in my file
(and my file is small compared to many of yours!). In Karen's info, she has
her notebooks divided up by 100s. The That is great if you have documents
for people in the first 500 RINS but what if I have a document for RIN 6592?
I would have to have dividers for 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, all the way up to
6500 just to file this document.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
Michele,
I used that method for awhile and had exactly that problem. It is a great
plan in theory and goes perfectly with Legacy, but impractical for my own
use. I found myself not wanting to add spouses in for collateral lines
because it would just add another number. There were lots of empty slots
between MRIN's that were were active and lots of binders being taken up.
Plus, that's a lot of money being spent on tabs! I just recently switched to
a surname/family group system that I like much better. I didn't realize that
was what she was teaching in her webinar. I signed up and will probably
still attend, but I'm disappointed.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
Michele,
We're getting off topic here, but I'll make one more public comment on this in
case others are pondering certification.
As I'm sure you realize, a research plan and a research log are not the same
thing. I concur that a printout from the Legacy To Do feature is not
appropriate for this requirement, even if structured as a research plan. I'm
reasonably certain the BCG expectation is for a narrative, not a form. If you
have submitted your preliminary application, I'd strongly recommend you ask for
clarification on the applicants' mailing list.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
That is the system that I used to use, and I agree, it does work well with
Legacy since you can color code your ancestors :) In theory I liked it but
honestly, the files became cumbersome. For your direct ancestors you would
have some files with nothing in there but a family group sheet. The one
thing that I DID like about it, and I still use, are the location files. I
have a whole file drawer with location files where I keep maps, cemetery
surveys, research guidance booklets from the FHL, and any other general
info. There are labeled like this
USA - GEORGIA - LINCOLN CO
USA - GEORGIA - MCDUFFIE CO
USA - GEORGIA - RICHMOND CO
USA - MISSISSIPPI - FORREST CO
USA - MISSISSIPPI - LAMAR CO
Also, with Mary Hill's system and with Karen Clifford's system, they want
you to print out family group sheets and pedigree charts. I don't like that
because I work in Legacy every day and I am constantly adding and
updatingThose family groups sheets and pedigree charts would need constant
updating taking away valuable time and money for printing! I can easily
look up pedigrees and family group sheets in Legacy in an instant. I much
rather just let Legacy handle that part :)
Many documents I no longer print (the biggest example are census records).
I can just turn them into pdfs and attach them in Legacy. The only paper
documents I have any more are documents that I had to request or go get from
a courthouse. I think both of the above systems were designed (and worked
well) for when people had many more documents than they do now. Besides
online census records, there are so many documents available online as
digital images that you can jpg or pdf that you no longer have to order hard
copies from archives and courthouse.Now with FamilySearch cranking out
digital images daily, I foresee even less of a need for such
complex/comprehensive filing systems.

Connie,
As part of section 3, Document Work, submit a research plan (one
page or
less) describing the first steps for continuing research to
resolve the
problem defined in 3_c. {Standard 5}. You should
1) base the plan on clues found within the document and on sound
research
methods, standard genealogical sources, and material specific to
the area,
time period, and subject of this records; and
2) identify fully any publications, personnel, repositories, or
records
(original, in print, or electronic) you would normal consult
RE: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
Hi Sherry, David Tim, Tim's question is one that's dear to my heart. What software is around nowadays that has the ability to note down your genealogical research in a format similar to the standard paper note keeping form such as the often referred to 'Research Record Sheet' or 'Correspondence Record Sheet'? At this time I have stumbled upon an old program titled 'Bygones' by Steve Adair which was developed during the 1990s. Unfortunately, the last time it was updated was in 1999. The software is available at http://www.bygonessoftware.com/ It seems quite reasonable but we are talking about software programming and technology that is now over twelve years old. I'm sure that there must be more recent genealogical research software around that enables us to enter research data and print out our research results in the accepted Research Correspondence Record Sheets. As often is the case these days, I can type faster that I can write/print - and I will admit that it is much neater as well. What's more, when you are using the internet for research it’s a bonus just to be able to copy the information and place it in a Genealogical Research program. Appreciate any recommendations from yourselves or other members on the LUG.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research Logs
The only problem I have with the Legacy Research log is that it is too big and clunky. I have to make a research log for the BCG (Board for the Certification of Genealogists) and it can only be one page. I have to be able to get about 10 entries on there.
