[LegacyUG] Place of Death

Place of death: I have some relatives whose residences at death were in a suburb of a larger city. In the last few days of life they were moved to a hospital or hospice across the city line into the larger city. For example. a 95 year old uncle of mine lived in Mableton, GA, a suburb of Atlanta

Re: [LegacyUG] Surname Changed When Immigrated ;-)

In addition to the widespread illiteracy of the time, paper to record information was considered an expensive luxury. For people struggling to pay for the basic necessities of living maintaining family records was not very important. Spelling of a name, birth and death dates, etc. were well down

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage DNA test

I had similar DNA inconsistencies. Ancestry reported primarily Scandinavian, Irish and Western European. MyHeritage reported English and Irish/Scottish/Welsh. The only possible explanation I have found is from a couple of sources: They say that there can be a strong Scandinavian impact in Englan

I also agree with these comments. I downloaded v9 and its updates and have encountered no problems. Some of the new features, particularly the hints from other sites, are very useful. I hope other key sites can be added in the future. By the way, I am running Windows 10. Dean Adams On Thu, Ap

[LegacyUG] Counties

Virginia has 30+ cities that are not part of counties. They are independent cities. LFT does not recognize this. Each time I enter a Virginia city location, the software warns me that this "county" did not exist at the time. Is there any way around this or must I just live with it? Does Legacy
