I don't see anything about training DVDs for Legacy 8. Where do you see that at
this point? I always get them when I order the new version.

The free version has never had Notes capabilities. The Notes from your Deluxe
version are probably still there, but access won't be unlocked until you pay
for the Deluxe version 8.

Once there is a marriage, you always put people in the line of the father. The
family name and lineage are passed down from the father. I also have an event
of Intermarriage so I can document how they are related and any other info.

In the individual view, there is a "+" next to the burial info. Click on that
and choose "cremated." If you don't know the date of cremation, that's okay.
At least you know that a burial might not be done but the cremation is noted.
