RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Question...
Dawn: Now *that's* a good reason. When reading films ordered from the Canadian National Archives or the FHL I've often wondered if different copies of the same film could be better. From what I've seen so far, though, there's nothing in Mills about recording the film copy number in the source citation. Maybe that's something to consider. Of course, I'm only on p. 50 of 'Evidence Explained' and it's a big book so perhaps she's already thought of it. Very interesting comment. Thanks.

Some years ago I ordered a census film from the FHL. The names on the page I needed were obliterated. On another occassion, I was at the Sacramento State Library where I looked at the same film. The page I needed was beautiful and clear. I not only record the repository, but also the line number, household number, and film details. Dawn Have you unlocked the real power of Legacy?

Nancy, Without knowing which type of Gedcom you sent it is difficult to know whether the problem is at your end or your cousin's. I have sent GEDCOM 5.5 to several users of different programs, including FTM without problems. The 5.5 option is obtained by using the drop-down list in the box where it says produce files for. You can view your Gedcom in Notepad, as can your cousin, and if you compare them and they are the same then the problem may lie with his/her FTM, otherwise there has been a transmission problem.

Re: [LegacyUG] About dates
What do you do about sourcing info-- let's say you have a source for the location but not for the date. How do you indicate it's YOUR guesstimate and that the source is silent on the matter (since Legacy groups date location together as far as sources go for births, deaths, etc)? From: Mitch Mackrory [EMAIL PROTECTED] For example, once I have a child (any child) in a family, I assume it is the eldest child and that the parents were likely married a year prior to this. Let's say the child was born in 1856. I set the date for the marriage as BEF 1855. I now have some information to do further work on. I would record this with a Surety Level of 1 (marginal evidence). Let's assume that this helps me find the family and I now figure out that there were two older children born in 1852 and 1855. I would now change the marriage date to BEF 1851 and I may change my Surety Level to 2 (probable conclusion) if I am happy this is the whole family. If this helps me narrow down when to look for the marriage record, this is useful. Let's say I now find the index record of the marriage record. I'll use UK terminology since that is what I work on. I find an index record dated in the second quarter of 1850 and it looks good. I'll record this index info in the marriage and likely change my marriage date to Jun Q 1850; possibly even updating my Surety Level to 3 (Almost Certain Conclusion). When I get a copy of the certificate, let's say there are witnesses that confirm this is the right marriage. At that stage my marriage date changes to 14 Apr 1850 and my Surety Level might even go to 4 (Convincing Evidence). If I came across other evidence I may change my date to AFT or ABT, but I always try to estimate a reasonable date as soon as I can and then classify that assessment using the Surety Level system in Legacy. Note that if my marriage date is BEF 1851 as an example, I will likely start searching the marriage records from 1853 and work backwards for 20 plus years. Also, once I have the marriage date fixed I move on to census records (for example) to confirm that the decisions I have made are correct. I hope that helps, Mitch Mackrory Colorado, USA On 8/12/07, Valeris Garton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have many people in my database that I do not know when they were born nor when they died but have an idea as to when they were around e.g. in a directory, witness to a marriage or last child born etc. How does everyone handle this problem.

I have sent GEDCOM 5.5 to several users of different programs, including FTM without problems. The 5.5 option is obtained by using the drop-down list in the box where it says produce files for. You can view your Gedcom in Notepad, as can your cousin, and if you compare them and they are the same then the problem may lie with his/her FTM, otherwise there has been a transmission problem.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Question...
I think it was on the laminated 4-page source citations by Mills that she also put the name she had searched for in the documentation. I'm not sure why that is necessary if you're including details as to page number, family number, and if the name searched is the same as the name found. And often I find people (e.g., other families) I wasn't even searching for anyway. Comments?

From what I've seen so far, though, there's nothing in Mills about recording the film copy number in the source citation. Maybe that's something to consider. Of course, I'm only on p. 50 of 'Evidence Explained' and it's a big book so perhaps she's already thought of it. Very interesting comment. Thanks.

Re: [LegacyUG] About dates
Pat, Good point and I should have included that as well. Here is a real example... I have one Master Source as follows: Source List Name: Estimated Dates Author: Mitch Mackrory Publication Facts: Not Published When I use the single Master Source, I cite it and record as follows: Details: Marriage Date 1870 estimated based on the birth date of his son, Herbert Stephen Peacock (15 Dec 1872) Surety Level: 0 Recorded Date: 27 Oct 2005: Details: Marriage date 1859 estimated based on youngest child's birth date (William Peacock 1860). Surety Level: 1 (I now believe I have the whole family) Recorded Date: 7 May 2006 I am still busy with this example. Note that I have two source details (citations) for this one marriage date. The later one supersedes the earlier one. I could have removed the first one, but I tend to keep data until I reach a final conclusion. Even then I am loath to erase data that is a history of the research I have undertaken and the conclusions I reached along the way. All my detailed notes are kept in a source detail or citation of the single master source. Does that make more sense now?

RE: [LegacyUG] Titles
Hi Jennifer, You are right about my choice of words to describe a relationship between two people who never married which resulted in the birth of a child. I find that the wording options in the marriage screen refers to the two people as a married couple in all the reports. The best that I could come up with after trying different combinations of words to describe the relationship between the two involved is as follows: Change the Left label Husband to Father. Change the Righr label Wife to Mother. Change Married to had an affair with. Change Spouse to Affair with. Change Married to Affair.

Richard, This sounds like an error in your file. I cannot check it as I already have twin in my list for child status but I have no blank lines and at present none of the entries are tagged. If I highlight twins and click show list then it correctly lists all the identified twins in my files and gives me the options of tagging, untagging those on the list and untagging all entries in my files. If yours isn't working this way you could try File MaintenanceCheck Repair.

Re: [LegacyUG] Black Background on Web Pages
Sorry, I didn't get home last night until 730pm and then I finally got two Civil War pension files I was waiting for, which was too hard to resist. In the page source code it says body BGCOLOR=#10 Now, on some experimentation, if I choose colors that came with Legacy ( in the Color box that pops up, the ones with the longer color bars, like the green or dark pink colors), the proper background color is generated. Even some custom colors work, although selecting a similar, but not the same, shade of tan, resulted in what appeared to be a black background but source code that said body BGCOLOR=#0F I'll report the glitch to support. Thank you for sorting it out. Lisa ronald ferguson wrote: My apologies, Lisa, I was in a rush at the time I replied and missed that bit of your reply. Since that is the case and the colour information is not being transferred from the setting you have made to the web page - you can check that this is the case by looking at the body tag in the html - whcih will contain BGCOLOR=#00 for a black backgound but something else for tan (I cannot say what other hex number because I don't know the exact shade). Given that it does say #00 then I think you will need to uninstall and reinstall Legacy to get it to woirk correctly as there is a fault in the coding on your installation.

Re: [LegacyUG] Child status menu is blank
- Original Message - From: Phil Hawkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] snip I had a similar issue for some time, except my 'child status' list stayed blank - I couldn't add to it although I could see it in Access In the end I created a brand new family file and exported the old file to it. That worked and my 'child status' list is fully operational. There must be something that corrupts the list in some way HTH Phil My tblCS child status looked fine in Access also. Tried save file as temp, no help but exported complete file to Legacy temp.fdb and temp works OK. Original file is 41.5MB. Temp file is 52.6MB?? After check/repair it dropped to 41.1MB. I guess all my special Access querys are out. Check/repair didn't help on the original file.

RE: [LegacyUG] In Memoriam
The way I would do this is make the event the Obituary and the source the newspaper the In Memoriam notice came from, citing In Memoriam notice, date and page/column number if known in Details. In Source Text, you could copy the entire announcement. This source could apply to other details mentioned in the announcement - for example, death date, names of relatives etc. Jennifer -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of M.

Re: [LegacyUG] Basic Question
Cathy Champion wrote: Hi, I'm new to Legacy and have a question pertaining to sources - mainly duplicated ones. I imported my GEDCOM to Legacy, and found that it duplicated all of my sources, both Master sources and individual, so after searching for an hour for an easy method of fixing it I just went ahead and did them all manually (using the duplicate merge feature did not work in this case). While doing that I also found that I had duplicate AKAs from the various census records and decided to delete those also and just left one of each AKA. Then a friend of mine said that this is wrong - that I should leave them because you want to leave proof of what names were used most consistently. She said I should have left the duplicate sources also, because they may have been from other records. I just can't see the sense of having Joe Blow aka Joe Blow, Joe Blow, Joseph Blow, Joe Blow; nor the sense of printing a family report that takes up one page with a list of sources three pages long with four sources repeated numerous times. To me this looks unprofessional and sloppy. So...who is correct? Thanks Cathy Champion in Fenton, MO (St. Louis) -- -- Hello Cathy, Please don't give up on Legacy.

RE: [LegacyUG] County without city
Hi Dee, The way you posted it originally is the way I enter the data when there is no town. , Bell County, Texas, USA is how I would enter your example. As Leon Chapman notes, there is a comma place holder in front of the county name to maintain the sort fields. Make no apologies for our ancestors not always living in named villages, towns and cities. It is what it is. Anyone who has delved into genealogy knows there was not always a town. If they don't know that yet, feel free to educate them. -- Alice [Original Message] From: Dee Whiting [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Date: 8/14/2007 9:40:39 PM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] County without city I am interested in a way to write this without Co. ,Bell Co is not necessarily recognizable, and it makes it look like we haven't done our research to get the name of the city when in fact there is no city.
