photo/image then. Seems like the way to go

Hello Sherry and Tim
I have been using Legacy v5 on the new laptop with Windows 7 for the past 6
weeks without any problems until Friday.
Last night I resolved the issue. I went www.LegacyFamilyTree.com > Help

One photo per event...i.e. you can add as many photos as you want to an
event, BUT only the "starred" (preferred) photo will print.
You will have to create an event for EACH photo you want to print.
You could create an engagement event, then wedding/marriage event/ wedding
guests event, etc. Click

Michele,
Michele,
I am not particularly well up in American Geography but there is a Perry
County in Tennessee - Wikipedia: "Perry County is a county located in the
U.S. state of Tennessee."

I have watched this problem for some time and there is another sequence that
does make the map work. When I find that checking "Show Map" in the Master
Locations only shows a blank then I go to "Family" tab and click on the
"Mapping" icon. After a few seconds (assuming you are online) the map

All of the locations that are IN Perry County are showing correctly on the
map (such as New Augusta, Perry, Mississippi, USA) but just plain old Perry
County is put up in Tennessee.

Okay, I re geocoded it but it is still putting Perry County, Mississippi up
in Tennessee. Very strange.

Comments in the Compiler Information field do not print. I checked the LUG
Archives and found that in 2007 that Legacy Support confirmed that this
feature did not work, and that a problem report had been received. Would I
be correct in assuming that this feature has still not been corrected?
Thank
I see it now Sherry! I didn't read this other response :)

Sheri,
I think I understand where you are coming from, but I would never use photos
in that way; I use them in source Details to support, say, a death event,
where the photo might be a tombstone. That is not to say that there is
anything wrong in principle with what you are trying to do, but it's
I also do all of this, but I add one more identifying piece of
information. I pick a landmark that is probably going to be permanent,
and describe each stone's location based on that landmark. Cemetery
signs are poor landmarks, they often get moved closer to the entrance,
or closer to the road, etc
I would source this completely differently. Since you went to the cemetery
yourself to take the photos, I would source it as
Cemetery records
grave markers, plaques, tombstones, monumental inscriptions
grave markers, rural (the one I use most)
then put in the cemetery name

Please forgive me for asking a really DUMB question...
How do I source digital photos that I've taken of, for example, headstones
and cemeteries?
These digital photos are the cemetery sign or entrance, an overview of the
cemetery, the headstone (some at various angles or close-ups of certain

Ricki, I am guilty of this also, but when your maps don't come up,
make sure you are actually online. When they don't come up for me, I
am ready invent a new cuss word- I just knew I was online! Then I
check, and I wasn't. That should teach me some patience!
Thank you.

If you normally start Legacy with the option to show maps OFF then to
get the map to show you have to turn the option ON then exit Legacy and
restart it. This is a known problem and a report has been entered to
have it fixed but until that happens you will have to use the restart to

After checking the box, you have to close the Master Location List
window and open it again to view the map.
Of course, you also have to be online.

Alan,
The .fdb databases are not compatible with v5 and v7. If you opened the
familyfile on version 7, you cannot use that file on v5. To do so, you
would need to create a gedcom from v7 then use that gedcom to import it
to v5. Bummer if you did so.

I use the following events with sentences defined appropriately. As always,
this is what I have decided to do. With Legacy's flexibility, you can do
almost anything you want to fit your style of research and reporting.

Hi Jenny
I create two "matching" events, with the event name indicating in
brackets if they are "done to" or "done by", and edit the wording so
that it is correct for each - in effect I have two separate events.
