people. For all other censuses you can either use it to contrast compare
your previously found entries or not use it at all.

That's because you have no existing 1940 Census data!
In a future update Legacy will take into consideration other factors like
this. I'll explain this in the webinar later today.

One other enhancement that would help would having the ability to
exclude someone from a particular census. There are some people who you
just cannot find in a particular census and marking them as
excluded/can't find would make the list easier to use. And an option

Yes, the window is maximized. It’s doesn’t appear that the text is too tiny as
