Re: [LegacyUG] Error Report after running File Maintenance

I too thought it was an error, however, I examined my website which was created from a GEDCOM created in a previous version before this error check (which showed I had 7 of these errors), I examined all seven of those individuals who were never married, however they did show an empty Family record

RE: [LegacyUG] Error Report after running File Maintenance

I was holding that thought in the back of my mind but since it turned out to be just a no harm, no foul error that was automatically fixed, it didn't really bother me. I'm not sure about the cause but I know all of us users sometime do strange things to our database just to test out what-if

RE: [LegacyUG] Infant deaths

I put them in as a real person. I leave the first name blank. I will put M or F if known. I will put in any dates I have, real or estimated. And then source everything. Michele -Original Message- From: Jenny M Benson [mailto:ge...@cedarbank.me.uk] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2013
