[LegacyUG] Potential Census List

In the SEARCH window under the MISCELLANEOUS tab there is an option "Create a Potential Census List". When I choose this option and click on "Create List" nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! (I'm running 7.5.0.147) Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiqu

[LegacyUG] Moving FROM FTM

I'm going to take the plunge and move from FTM (after 10+ years) to Legacy. Is there information available on making this move? I know how to export/import GEDCOMs. But is there a list of "best practices" or possible pitfalls to watch out for as I move my files? Thanks in advance for any advice

Re: [LegacyUG] census event

I use the official date because the census taker is SUPPOSED to report based on that date. IN THEORY, if someone died on April 2 they should be reported in the census. Rick On Sat, Mar 10, 2012 at 6:20 AM, Michele Lewis wrote: > When you add a census event, do you use the official census day as

Don't walk away from the iPad so quickly. There is an app that runs on the iPad (called Families) that will allow you to transfer your data from your PC to the iPad. And vice-versa. On Wed, Oct 24, 2012 at 4:47 PM, MJ SA wrote: > Thanks Don, but that is not my question. My question, if I was g

I want to say AMEN to Tessa's comments! And I want to say what a good job Geoff has done with these webinars. I've been "attending" the Legacy webinars since almost the beginning.

OLD STYLE & NEW STYLE DATES FOR THE QUAKER CALENDAR You are probably familiar with the change from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar in 1752/53. Because of the Quaker custom of not using standard names for months there is some modern confusion when refering to pre-1752 Quaker records. The follo

Re: [LegacyUG] Hash Tags

If you select "Legacy" as the "Produce File For" option in the File Extract the Hashtag abbreviation and description will be part of the GEDCOM file. I plan to use hashtags as both permanent and temporary identifiers. On Thu, May 11, 2017 at 12:11 PM, R G Strong Genealogy < rgstrongge...@gmail.co

Howland, The Find A Grave search algorithm only matches on EXACT equals. When I get No Records Found I click on the Refine Last Search option in the left column and modify the fields used in the initial attempt. I've found that Middle Names cause many of my misses.

Re: [LegacyUG] Hello from MyHeritage + 2 unique offers

Susie Z, I called and they told me the offer for existing subscribers expired 9/10 or 9/11. She checked and said the deal for existing MyHeritage had expired. So I told her to cancel my subscription and refund the remaining balance - which she did. Then I subscribed at the reduced rate from Geoff's
