Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources search list: type = "book"

[Bob Austen]

What part do you want to turn off? The messages you receive are what the LUG is 
about. To stop them you need to unsubscribe. See below where I have highlighted 
the link.

You obviously ARE a subscriber (whether you wanted to be or not) or you
wouldn't be getting the mails.  You need to do as Chris Hill said.

At the bottom of these messages is a link described as "manage your
subscription and unsubscribe".

Follow that link, enter your email address at the bottom and click the
"edit your subscription" button, then follow the instructions towards the
end.

Please, this is simple and I have already answered it for you. Please read
and follow the instructions.

If it is asking for a password that you do not know, there is a 
Remind button at the bottom of the edit/unsubscribe form that is used to 
send you the password.


Otherwise email to supp...@legacyfamilytree.com and ask them to

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources search list: type = "book"

[Gene Wheeler]

Thanks for your suggestion, Jenny. I have done this for census records, and
several other types of sources; unfortunately, not for Books.  I'll take
a look to see if it would be a reasonable task to go back through and do it
for Books. Meanwhile, I have entered an enhancement request.

I think maybe this answers my question.

All my Master Sources have titles which indicate the type of Source - 
for example "Census - England 1851 or Baptism Records - Kent or Book - 
Burke's Peerage" - so it would be very easy for me to find and tag any 
particular type.

Have you set up your Source in such a way that it is easy to identify 
all the Book Sources?  If so, tag all those Sources in the Master Source 
list, then go to Reports>Other and select the Source Citations report. 
One of the items on the "Include" tab is "Only Tagged Sources."

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources search list: type = "book"

Gene,

I don't think you can.
This is a field available for Basic Style sources. If filled in it gives 
you a different Source Assistant. I don't think it does anything else 
and I see I rarely fill it in.
From View - Master Lists - Source Type you can get a list of 
individuals that use that particular source type but that's not what you 
want.
There are suggestions logged for being able to search sources more 
easily but I don't think they reference this field. Put in a suggestion 
for an enhancement to the Source Citation report.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources vs

[Cathy Pinner]

Naomi,

One thing to think about is how you might use the Show List feature. If 
you are too much of a lumper, it's pretty useless - but the same goes if 
you are an extreme splitter. For some sources I'm a lumper and for other 
source types I'm a splitter - mainly because of how I might want to use 
Show List and then turn that list into a search list.

A lot will depend on which sources apply to your data, and how

information you have from each source.

For example, if you have a very large number of families from
a small area,
you may want to make that small area (eg Putnam Country, Ohio)
a master
source, but if you have family scattered over a wider area,
you might want to
make the master source the 1920 US Census, and put Putnam
County into the
details.

My own preference is the latter, but I still make exceptions
for some things.

One reason for my preference is database architecture, which
is a bit
technical, but still worth considering.

Legacy is a relational database, and one of the rules of
relational database
is to avoid duplication. If you make Putnam County Ohio and
Monroe County
Michigan your master sources, then you have to enter the 1920
US Census
twice, and more if there are other counties. All those entries
take up space
on your disk.

There are 3,141 counties in the United States. If you had 2
people in each in
the 1920 Census, that would be 3141 Master Sources and 6282
detail sources.
If, however, you lump the entries for the 1920 Census into one
master source,
that's 3140 master source records.

But if your people are distributed over 5 counties, then 5
Master sources
might be better.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources vs

I am a splitter.  My census records are organized State, county, Year with
the rest in the details.  i.e. Pennsylvania, Lancaster County - 1850
It would drive me crazy to just to 1850 Census.

Different people deal with this in different ways.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources vs

[Naomi SMITH BLACK]

I think I was a lumper, LOL.  I noticed in the attempts at exporting my
GEDCOM a while ago that I showed 125 Master Sources
with 18,892 citations.
I have read and looked up the topic so much the past few days that I am
more confused than ever.  Too much of a good thing.
I will give it some thought and maybe find a happy medium.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources vs

[Tessa Keough]

that is the eternal "lumper" vs "splitter" debate that many have had and
you can probably find discussion of on various boards. For my part I am a
lumper and I use the 1920 US Census as a master source (I do make the
distinction of where I got it) and then change it up in detail for the
locations and households. Others use the specific census in the specific
location as the master source and the detail is just the household.

Question - what did you do before and how did it work for you? Give it some
thought, watch the videos that reference master sources and decide for
yourself how you want to approach your master sources.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources

An even simpler way, from the Legacy Facebook page:

>>>>>>>>> 

Cathy Martin Naborowski <https://www.facebook.com/cathy.naborowski?fref=ufi>
Here are the instructions - I think they came from Michele Simmons Lewis
<https://www.facebook.com/michele.s.lewis?hc_location=ufi> . To copy a
master source from one file to another.

Tag in first file (make sure it's the only tagged item). Close that file.
Open new file. Go to master source list and import Master Source - tagged
only

It applies to Basic Style Sources only where the Title of published

Yes, I do it all the time but you need to be VERY careful when you do this.  
Bring up the source you want to use but alter.  Click Edit over on the right

You don't want to accidentally pick the first option or you will overwrite the

Hi - a simple question but one which confounds me at the moment. I have to 
create numerous new sources which are similar (Single county parish registers 
where only the name of the parish is different but the origin of the source is 
different). Is it possible to copy a master source? Then I could just change 
the name and origin.

What I try and remember to do, just in case I slip up later on, is
change ONLY the name of the Source and save it.  Then, if I've saved it
correctly as a new Source, I open it and carry on with the edits and
save it again.  If I have accidentally overwritten the one I was
editing, it doesn't matter because it's only the name which has changed.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Master sources

Hi - a simple question but one which confounds me at the moment. I have to
create numerous new sources which are similar (Single county parish
registers where only the name of the parish is different but the origin of
the source is different). Is it possible to copy a master source? Then I
could just change the name and origin.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources added when addding to do item

[Thomas Ramey]

Thanks Russ:
I understand that is the way it is designed to work but was hoping for a
select button or a work around. In my way of thinking, it just seems to me
that it is inappropriate to add a master source when no source has been
tied to a fact or event.  Its not a major problem, just woks different than
I wanted it to. Still learning the more advanced fetures. Tom

 When using research assistant, when you select “plan to search” for a
 search item to add it to your to do list , Legacy adds it correctly to the
 to do list.  However it also adds a new source to your master source list
 as well,  as a non-source writer master source.  I have been rebuilding
 my tree and carefully using source writer whenever I add a source.  I
 would prefer for Legacy not to add this source whenever I add a to do item.
 Is there a way to keep this addition from happening?  Thanks.  Tom

Hi Robert,

Great explanation. I really had not even thought of that.

Thanks,
Tim

On 10/20/2010 7:41 PM, Robert E. Carneal wrote:
 Tim-  I believe what Sherry means is something like this happens:

 Say you enter your grandfather on January 1, 1995. You also enter
 several other people on the dates of January 2, 1995, January 3, 1995.
 You are using Legacy. You make a Gedcom of your family file, perhaps
 to share with a cousin, or just for backup purposes, on January 5,
 1995. You keep this Gedcom. Gedcoms do not save the date you entered
 data into Legacy.

 Today (also using Legacy), you realize you need to import that Gedcom
 you made in January 5, 1995 to a file. Legacy doesn't know better, and
 when you import those people, Legacy assigns them a today's date. For
 Legacy to use the original date, somehow, someone would have to change
 the Gedcom format to accommodate and accept date-added/modified
 dates for Legacy. There is a problem here. Let's say Millennia changes
 the Gedcom format to accept those dates- can you imagine the uproar
 Millennia would have if someone were to take a Millennia-Legacy-built
 Gedcom and try to import it into one of the competitors? There are
 arguments in both directions as to the validity of this, but I believe
 it is a strength for Legacy not to put date-added/modified dates
 into Gedcoms. There are those who will disagree- and I won't argue
 either way.

 This is also why you lose bookmarks- The current Gedcom standard does
 not accommodate those either.

 Does that help?

re: [LegacyUG] Master sources - 2 computers in use.

[Jim Terry/Support]

Kathy,

(1) To get your Master Sources to reappear in Legacy on tyour netbook click
on View on the menu bar and select Master Lists  Source. Next remove the
check marks from any of the boxes in the 'Show Only' area below the Help
button on the right side of the screen. Once you do this, all of your
sources will display.
 (2) Backing up and restoring is an excellent way of moving your family
file to your netbook.  Just backup in Legacy on the first PC and restore
the family file in Legacy on the netbook. It makes a perfect copy --
nothing lost! Make sure to install Legacy on the second PC before you
begin. For detailed backup and restore guidance with helpful screen shots

I've a feeling that I've had this problem before but unfortunately don't
remember the answer   I have Legacy running on both a home computer and
on a netbook.  I just backed the file up from the main computer and copied
the zip file to the netbook.  I can get the file to open but notice that
for some reason the master source records are nearly all missing from the
database on the netbook.  Should I have used Export rather than using a zip
file?  How best can I get both computers with the same version of the
database so that when I am away from home I can do input on the netbook -
then update the main computer?   I store images in the pictures
subdirectory under Legacy and know that I need to copy newly added info to
the other computer's comparable directory.   I do the back up for media
files but find it rather labour intensive to transfer things from there
because my Pictures are further sub directoried by family name.   Any ideas
on how I can get the sources back so that I don't have to re-enter them on
the netbook would be appreciated.  With ~5500 individuals I probably have
700 sources -- many of them used repeatedly.   Thanks in advance Kathy

Another idea is to store your working file in Dropbox (download for free);
then when you turn on your netbook and it connects to the internet, any
updated files will be transferred to your netbook automatically.  If you
don't already have it, let me know and I'll send you a link. If you sign up
via a link, you and I both get additional free storage space.  Email me
privately if you need that :-)  Kathy
