Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
to have to put in a date to get research guidance suggestions, also defeats the purpose really.

RE: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
Kathy, Can you not estimate dates based on the information you have? I always try to put in birth, date, marriages estimations. At the very least I put in Bef. or Aft. Dates. Where did you get these names in the first place? Census records? Obits? Even if you are 10 years off that is better than no dates. As more info comes in, you can narrow the dates.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
Not the point though Michelle - I personally have some ideas, but Legacy is giving me no suggestions on where to look I do have a number of "Alt. Death" events for people who I am uncertain of when they died - even those don't help Legacy to give me hints like the regular normal ones of"Cemeteries, World-wide" or "England Probate Records" or "England/Wales Parish Register - Burials" etc It doesnt even have these as suggested soources for this person No, I didn't find the names from Obituaries, if I had, I'd have a death date or at least year for them I have the names from the baptisms of their children or their own marriage document, or from census records. No I can't always use the census records because some of these people died after the last available census for the area (ie 1911 in England) Yes, some did die between census records, and for those I don't need the hints because I have a very defined time frame.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
I thought Legacy was a programme to record your Family Tree with the additional bonus of sometimes giving you ideas of where to look - not a one stop department store - I thought the idea was they give you some ideas of where you might find some locations but they aren't supposed to do the research for you. That's how I use and see it anyway.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
Of course - but I was asking the question about if I had found a bug or not, not "Hey where's my handout" That's why and how I knew about the other things of where to look and why I'm not tearing my hair out puzzled about where to look. It is Research "Guidance" afterall - and I wanted Guidance on that person.

RE: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
Kathy, If I have nothing but a marriage record I assume the groom was abt 21 and the bride was about 18. If I have nothing but the date of birth of the children, I find the oldest know child and calculate the marriage date 1 year before that and then their ages using the 21/18 rule. If you have a marriage or a baptism, you have at least one location on their timeline for the Research Guidance to work with. When I put in a test person with one date and England as a location I got the specific databases you listed.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
Michelle in Support I believe you are missing Kathy Thompson's point. I think she is asking LegacyFamilyTree's Research Guidance to have your logic built in. That is for the program to be intelligent enough to determine that there is a missing death date for a person and then use the generic rules you describe to make suggestions as to where to look for the missing information. She wants to avoid entering guessed data into her known genealogy file. If the person is born in England, married in England, and has English descendants then one would expect English vital records to be listed ahead of French, German, or American sources, if these latter sources are mentioned at all in the Research Guidance.

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
Actually - my point is not that I want hints, my point is that I have Zero hints and I've never seen Legacy have Zero hints for anyone in any of the areas before. In fact, none of my NEWLY added people have hints in the "Suggested Sources - Goal: Death" As far as I can tell, the people who were in Legacy before the upgrade to L8 have Death suggestions, but the people I know that I've added in the last week, none of them have any Goal: Death suggested sources. I think I have a bug and I'm asking others to check their own files to confirm / deny that. That's the point of my original post. Which was For one of my people, I have Zero suggested sources to try and find a death, no ignored sources either. How? I have a dozen kids, half a dozen residences, no death for the person. Why do I not have suggested sources for finding a death? Bug? or what?

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
I'm finding more and more people - even among those I've had for a long time - without Goal: Death suggestions but like I said before, it's not because I'm relying on them, it's that it appears to be a bug that I am reporting it, but I want more "bug verification" before I report it officially. Either that, or which support/technical person is willing to get offlist screen shots to see what I am seeing On 27 December 2013 20:24, Graham Love wrote: > I seem to have research goals for people entered yesterday including > deaths for those who have died. > Graham > > Sent from my iPad > > On 27 Dec 2013, at 00:27, Kathy Thompson wrote: > > Actually - my point is not that I want hints, my point is that I have Zero > hints and I've never seen Legacy have Zero hints for anyone in any of the > areas before. > > In fact, none of my NEWLY added people have hints in the "Suggested > Sources - Goal: Death" > > As far as I can tell, the people who were in Legacy before the upgrade to > L8 have Death suggestions, but the people I know that I've added in the > last week, none of them have any Goal: Death suggested sources. > > I think I have a bug and I'm asking others to check their own files to > confirm / deny that. > > That's the point of my original post. > > Which was > > For one of my people, I have Zero suggested sources to try and find a > death, no ignored sources either. > > How?

Re: [LegacyUG] Research guidance - Goal with no suggestions
In comparing Legacy 8.0 to 7.5 I found that in Legacy 7.5 the Research Guidance would use estimated dates and places for events. It then used these estimated values for suggesting sources for the Goal tabs. In Legacy 8 the program no longer uses estimated dates or locations and, as a result, missing vital events (such as death entries) have no suggested sources. I have submitted a problem report on this with both changes identified as Bugs. The Help for Research Guidance still says Legacy will estimate dates and places in the timeline.
