Diane, glad you have cracked it! But if you want a new *Legacy* family
file - just Export to Legacy. There is no need for gedcom.

family "A", then I found out that the person should have been added to "B"
and "C". I gave up and merged into one file and now use th

Thanks for pointing me to the preview of the tagging video, Jim. I
learned a lot,and will have to play around with it one of these days. I
am new to Legacy, and just 'observing' right now, and not really using
the program very much.

I just got finished watching all of the training videos and I am trying to
go through my file and correct formatting errors (locations for example).
Here is my question...
If I have a questionable location I was putting things like
MS?
MS or AL
MS vs AL
Lamar Co, MS or Marion Co, MS
New Augusta
I have one more questions about location...
I have had no problems with the county verifier when I enter locations as
Purvis, Lamar Co, MS
instead of
Purvis, Lamar, Mississippi, USA
So obviously the program is recognizing what I am putting in there.
I prefer to put Co in there so that people w
I am sure you will get several answers to this, but to be on the safe
side, I always spell out the name of the state, as well as the word
'county', keeping in mind that my file may be read by some who are not
US residents and would not be aware of state abbreviations:

Hi Michele, when I have a location that is questionable the first thing that
I do is enter what I do know into the Location field (New Augusta, Perry
County, , USA), then click on the Show Master Location List button, Click
the edit button, when the next screen comes up click the Show Geo Locat
When I say questionable, I mean that I don't know where something happened.
For example, I think a person was born in either MS or AL but I don't know
which one (conflicting census records)
I am not sure the correct way to write MS or AL without messing up the
search feature.

Michael, in this instance I would enter that the person was born in the USA,
in the notes section I would enter a notation that due to conflicting census
records He/She was born in either MS or AL. Leo

Glenna,
How are you trying to tag them? If you go to the eldest ancestor and tag all
descendants then the children should be included. If they, or some of them,
are not it would suggest the the child/parents links have been broken during
the merge and may need reattaching.
This is the obviou

Hi Glenna,
The way you are doing this seems to be correct (but I am a Little puzzled by
your comment "to where I wanted"), nevertheless allow me to go through it
step by step.
1. On Family View Right click on the 3 tag boxes above the name of the
eldest ancestor.
2. Click Clear all tags
3.
Thanks Ron I will try that again, I think from your answer I missed a step.

Is it possible to do a global find/replace? If so I can't find how to do it.
I want to search my entire file for the phrase "Entrekin Cemetery" and to
replace it with "Entrekin Family Cemetery" (it's official name with the
courthouse)

I would use only the Marriage Status if that's all I know. I I know more and
use a Marriage Event only. No duplication this way.

I don't think there is. As far as I know you will have to search each of the

Hi Glenna,
Another thing to check if following Ron's directions don't get there for you.
On the screen to Tag descendants is a box for the number of
generations to include. This may be set too low.

I loved using angle brackets to flag locations or any other information that

discovered that their system deletes anything between angle brackets.
