RE: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report
If the person is married, that line will appear. It looks odd because everything else has been stripped from the report. For this to work 100% there needs to be a new report or an option on this report.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report
I have requested this type of report in the past. I think it would be a good thing, if possible, to be able to select the details that one would wish to include. For example, one could include the birth and death dates, and/or place, even spouses name, or not, as desired. Would that be hard to incorporated?

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report
Thx, Brian - I have the book because I'm part of a study group at the Dallas Genealogical Society (Dallas, TX). This year our focus is on writing a family history and the book is one of several we are using. This week we are creating genealogy reports using the various software programs that the members of the group use. It was coincidence that an ahnentafel report came up at the same time this discussion did.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report
Neither of these reports are what I call a traditional ahnentafel report. Are you familiar with what that is? It is linear, without individual details except for DOB and place, and DOD and place; individual couple separated by generation numbering. This report is far more condensed than that two you mentioned. Individuals are numbered, and you double that number to find the father's number, and add one to find the mother.

Yes, the numbers become immense, but it is the most concise and efficient way to list hundreds / thousands of ancestors. A variant uses the same system, either in a chart such as your pedigree chart, or in a report: Generation 1 1. person Generation 2 2. father 3. mother Generation 3 4. father's father 5. father's mother 6. mother's father 7. mother's mother etc. It is easy, if one can multiply and divide, to immediately find ancestors and descendants.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report example
Jane, It's possible that you don't even have tagging turned on so that the tags show on all views. If you don't have tag boxes on the main couple on Family View you need to go to Option 1.5 and turn on tagging. Then you can use advanced tagging as Jay says. However, I think there are easier ways to get who you want in the new file. Also, when you come to export, export to a Legacy file, not a Gedcom. This is VITAL if you use SourceWriter sources as going via a Gedcom converts them all to Basic Sources. You want the direct line between two people, then you want the surrounding relatives in the file so that they can be named as parents, spouses and children but not have their own entry if I've understood you correctly. 1. Make sure the tag number you want to use is not used for anything else. 2. Go to the relationship calculator (Tools - Relationship) and set the left and right persons to your starting and ending person. (if you want the siblings of your start person, you need to start with one of their children or tag the siblings manually before step 6.) 3. Click the Options button and choose to tag the relationship line. 4. Close the Relationship Calculator 5. If you want to see whether the tags worked OK - go to the Name List, Search Show all tagged x where x is the tag number you are working with. 6. Now you are ready to export. 7. File Export to Legacy File Give the new file a name eg: Ancestor line bet x and y Then choose on the Legacy Export options screen to export those tagged x AND tick the boxes underneath for their spouses, parents and children. Click the Privacy Options and set them as desired Check Show combine options when event definitions or locations are different. 8. Start the Export. Click the Start to Export Understand that although you are EXPORTING, from Legacy's point of view you are IMPORTING into an empty file. This is why you need to check the show combine options when event defini tions are different. The empty file has no locations so that bit only applies when you are adding to an existing file. However the empty file has the default event definitions so you need to choose to keep the incoming definitions if you've made any changes. The third option at the bottom of the combine screen. 9. Finish by opening the new file. 10. Go to your start person 11. Run an ancestor report using the options you desire. Done. There is one variation from what you desire. The spouses who are also your direct line ancestors have an entry. I don't know why you'd want to suppress them but you said you did. I've actually done this as I've written the steps so can send you a sample report privately if you'd like one.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report example
Thank you for trying, but you do not understand my level of expertise. I have a big problem with tagging among other things. I just need to be able to click on a report which, instead of giving me all of a person's ancestors, gives only one direct line, and to include the bmd info as well as events and children. I have another genealogy program that offers such a report, so I know it can be done. Again, thanks for trying, but you don't know who you are dealing with here.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report example
Jane, Tagging is VERY easy and will not change any of your data. Please try and see how simple this can be for you... You do not realize that anyone can do this, even you. If you cannot learn the tools that are available and make Legacy such a great program, you cannot expect to get the most out of all your work.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report example
Jane, here is a detailed list of steps for you Make a backup copy of your Legacy database Go to Jane Wells Click on the menu bar EDIT go to TAG RECORDS First we need to make sure that tags 1,2 and 3 are clear of any existing tags click on UNTAG radio button, It should already say Make Changes on 1 click on the EVERYONE button. Lets repeat for 2, click untag radio button, you need to change the Make changes on to 2 Click Everyone Lets repeat for 3 click untag radio button, you need to change the Make changes on to 3 Click Everyone Now we have cleared everyone from any 1,2 and 3 tags Since we opened the Tag Records menu from Janes page, she should be the person selected in the name field If not, click the CHANGE button and select Janes name so that it shows in the Individual Tagging window. Now clock the ANCESTORS button, a new window opens and here you select who to include; siblings, siblings spouses etc select your needs. (do not select entire related) Then click OK. It will set the tag 1 for all the persons that meet the parameters. Close the tag window, and go to the ancestor James Hulstar. From the menu bar EDIT go to TAG RECORDS In the tag window, James name should be the selected person. Change the Make Changes on TAG number to 2 Click on the descendants button, select just descendants, click OK. Close the Tag window Go to the Menu bar SEARCH FIND In the LOOK FOR select INDIVIDUAL WHERE TO LOOK - tag 1 How to look - EQUAL What to Look - TAGGED Select the Second Condition Individual TAG 2 Equals Tagged Then check the radio button near the bottom, Clear list before search Click on Create List The SEARCH window list opens with the persons who meet the parameters, Click on the OPTIONS button Select Advanced Tagging Make changes on needs to be changed to TAG 3 click on EVERYONE IN SEARCH LIST now all the people you want in your report are tagged, so lets export them to a new file FILE EXPORT GEDCOM Change the character set to UTF8 Click RECORD SELECTION and click on the radio button for records tagged with and change the tag number to 3 NOW in your example you wanted the report to list the parents of a spouse, so since the parents are not a DIRECT LINE between Jane and James, we need to include them. Select the Radio button for Export Spouses and export Parents (siblings is optional prob wouldnt hurt to include if you have any ancestors who married a sibling of a spouse) Close the record selection window Click on CUSTOMIZE here the events that are in you database are listed in the right side window under Export these items If there are any items you do not wish to include in your report Just scroll to the event name and click on it so that it is highlighted, then click on REMOVE. Do that for all you want to exclude, then click on OK Then click on START EXPORT and select a new name for this file. Open your new file Select Jane, select Ancestor narrative and BINGO, EXACTLY what you asked for in your original message On Tue, May 20, 2014 at 1:03 PM, Jane Sarles sarlesinsi...@gmail.comwrote: PS , I did try your solution and I (not the soluntion) failed.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report
Here is what I put in as a suggestion: Ahnentafel - Direct Line. While the Ahnentafel Report shows all ancestors of a selected person, the 'Direct Line' variation on this report shows only ancestors on a particular line of ascent. With that exception, all of the options related to the Ahnentafel report are also available for the Ahnentafel - Direct Line. The direct line is the important part. It includes similar information to an Ancestor report (or an ahnentafel report), but only for the direct line from person a to person b. From me to my oldest ancestor with the surname Smith, for example. Often I have cousins that I have met through our genealogy work to whom I need to send my information about the family we share. I need to have a report that only deals with the information that is common to us both, i.e. a direct-line ahnentafel report.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report
It seems to me that your cousin would be interested in the details for all descendants of person B. Your proposed report would exclude the siblings of your direct line ancestors, as I understand it. You and the cousin share a common ancestor, with you descending from one child of that ancestor and they descending from another. Would it not make sense to send one of the descendant type reports, starting with the child that you descend from? And if that descendant tree fans out too much, such that your place within it is hard to identify, then you could send a separate report from the Relationship Calculator to serve as a guide/reminder.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel report
I believe I have submitted this suggestion. Or at least the logic required for a Lineage Report between two specified individuals (not just running up the paternal line) would be the same. The logic used to identify one side of the existing Relationship Calculator would identify the people involved, and then just run the report (Ahnentafel or Lineage) for those people... as though they were tagged... or in a database by themselves.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report
I turned off the printing of everything in the report options to get the shortest version, but the vitals for each person are included. I found that my first missing ancestor would be #32. However, the report doesn't really give me a clue whose father that is... So, it assumes we know how the numbers relate, right? And it is #16's father, right? I think this stripped down version is fine for the stated requirement, especially since it's not like you're going to print it. Mine is only 6 pages anyway for 10 generations.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report
An easier way to find Ahnentafel numbers and see graphically which is your first missing ancestor is to use the pedigree report. The numbers of the individuals on that report also use the Ahnentafel numbering system.
