The only suggestion I could make is to enter the given name and surname in the reverse positions so they come out in reports in the surname given name order you want. There is no way to tell Legacy to use a different order of surname and given names for a single individual. Brian Customer Support

Rob - A possible work around; enter the names in the order you want them to print out (Vater Rob) in the *family box*, leaving the* given name* box blank. Then, to have it sort in the name list, enter it as an alternate name (be sure to enable alternate names in the name list) * given name *Rob

Have you actually personally seen MJM on so many tombstones? Back in the 40s and 50s when I was in Catholic grade school JMJ was used at the top of our school paper, on the blackboard, and on so many other things. It stood for Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. I wasn't into looking at tombstones at the

Rob, CSS styling can be added to the Legacy Pedigree Pages using LTools. There are also other ways of adding a limited CSS. In the former case you are not really required to know CSS in the latter you are. Myself, and others, will be happy to help on the WUL site. Ron Ferguson

There is a website about the 'Freese' family name that documents burials in St Charles County, Missouri. Many of the 'Comments' on these headstones includes MJM. Richards Cemetery, Cuivre Township, St. Charles Co., MO (Missouri) http://heritage.freese.net/Cemetery/StCharles/Richards/index.htm

RE: [LegacyUG] Tombstones

My speculation is that the instances of MJM in the comments column of each of those webpages is the initial of the person who supplied the info. There is, on Find A Grave, a person w/ initials MJM who usually puts their MJM initials in the comments column of all the entries they submit.
