Exactly my point ... thank you!
Entering the "info" isn't the real problem ...
i am putting together a family history ( "book" ) that will be made
available at a reunion in a few months, and the concern I have is with how
to keep it from ( possibly ) causing bad relations / embarassmen

your computer. All reports which yo

to 2103. I think there were about 10 or 11 merges, and I did get to an
Automerge part for some. I'll try some file maintenance again, too.
Then also isn't there a way to sway #2 and #9, an dead grandma and me???
Is Legacy version 7 going to interface with the New Family Search
(NFS)? Perhaps that is what is holding up the release?This old
Blog from Friday, September 21, 2007 claims Legacy is working on an

Unless for some reason you are using two different builds or versions

If more than one, uninstall one from there.
