I have had wonderful success finding sources for my family history on
FamilySearch. Now my question is will it be better to put them into Family
Tree now and sync them to Legacy later, or put them into Legacy and sync
them into Family Tree later?? It does take extra time to do both right
now. Th
I should have added that I do have my sources in my SourceBox on Family
Tree.

I’m not sure exactly how Legacy plans to add sources from Family Tree. In the
work I have done in Family Tree, it appears that one only adds sources to a
person, not to a particular fact/event. Perhaps Legacy will ask which
fact(s)/event(s) one wants to add the source to, or maybe it will just a

When the church gives us an API that will transfer sources other than the
basic one referencing that the information came from the FamilySearch site.

To be clear, will LegacyFT sources/citations entered into _SourceWriter_
ever be up-loadable to FamilySearchFT? I know it won't look the same
once its transferred. Is this the API we are waiting on from the
church? I am not too concerned with going the other way (FamilySearchFT
to LegacyFT)
Char
Not until the church gives us the API to allow us to do that.

I want to export individuals to a new family file. I want to export these
individuals WITHOUT any attached sources. When I try and do the export, I
don't see anything that I can check/uncheck to export everything but the
sources.

You could export using a GEDCOM and by using the “Customise” button select not
to export sources.

I really wouldn't expect that Legacy is going to tip their hand as to what they

I don't see a way to export to a Legacy file without sources but I know you can
do so with a GEDCOM export. You could export to GEDCOM then import the GEDCOM
back into Legacy. It's an extra step but it work.

Of course, whether or not something is implemented is totally up to the

It's up to the church's programmers They have not released an API yet

Thanks for explaining Sherry - I was sure there was a system, I just
wasn't aware of what it was.
