Hello Deanna,
Welcome! I’m really a new user as well, still learning, am really looking
forward to SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY if offers, but yes, there is quite a huge
learning curve, especially regarding how to document “sources” . Is that what

My first question regards the dual use of the German/English variations of
names with the umlaut;
For example, the German spelling is with the ü, but in US a ue was used,
which form would be the best to use as the most common name, as it relates
to the internet search function ca

Hello,
I there any recommended format to list locations for the older Prussian now
Pommeranian areas of former Germany now Poland? I’m new to this, and in the
archives from 2010, it seems that it is not possible for the Geobase to
properly identify these locations? So, if this is true, are t
In trying to fix unresolved Geobase locations, I’m seeing seemingly
inconsistent Geobase mapping of locations as follows: (this is 7.5 not yet

same person, but different year events:

I finally found a format/structure for a Old German Prussian(and current

Hello,
I just started using shared events w/ v.8 build 385(unless it didn't download
correctly, another question in a different email tho), and have these questions:

Hello again,
I've just been using v 8 for just over a week and didn't notice this as an
issue until after I downloaded build 385, so don't know if this is a glitch? Or

completed the entry screen and "saved" the info

added people to a shared event, it automatically offered the label option
"household member". .. ? Now it automatically offers "witness" and household

event you are looking at is a census.

operate together, and Legacy works just fine on a M
