Re: [LegacyUG] Sources
Yes, it is true at the moment. Each Legacy user must make their own decision. There are plenty like myself who do use SourceWriter.For me it's not a problem since I don't exchange GEDCO's, only reports. Note, though, that time marches on, and I'm pretty sure this won't always be a limitation.

[LegacyUG] Quick Question
How do you folks record census and residence information on the Latest Legacy build? I am using Windows 7, have plenty of ram memory, etc. Problem: Where do I enter the children's names when using the Legacy Census and Residence tags? 1) the Description field is not big enough to handle large families with 10 to 12 kids and a father/mother living with them. 2) the Events Notes field (in other programs - compatibility problem with RootsMagic) is often off=limits to information you wish to print. 3) Cut and Paste is long and tedious.

Re: [LegacyUG] Quick Question
I've always recorded my Census information as an event; copying the Event to the clipboard (including all the sourcing) and then pasting it to all of the individuals shown in that census works very quickly once the event sourcing has been entered that first time. Hope this is what you are asking. I haven't been using it that much lately so I guess there's something new that I haven't used yet. I am not sure what Census and Residence Tags are.

Re: [LegacyUG] Quick Question
David, This is one of those regular questions and you will probably find hundreds of references in the Archives (links below). I do not create a Census Event, and only use the census as a Source for the details contained on the census, for which I create events eg. Residence, Occupation, and for a new individual the Vital Events as well. I think that this is one of those options where one must decide which way to go and stick with it. By all means look at the options, Legacy has, I think, a DVD of at least some, but at the end of the day the choice will be yours, there is, in my view, no right nor wrong.

Re: [LegacyUG] indicating direct blood line
Sherry, Yes, that WILL show direct line, but it will NOT show blood line. In other words, it will not show if they are a blood relative or an adopted (or whatever) relative. We are, instead, looking for some way to indicate graphically if someone is a direct blood relative vs if they were adopted/guardian/legal-custody/family-cared-for/etc. ALL: Please don't take this to be a slap in the face to folks that are adopted (or whatever) - I have a couple of my own. Non-blood kids are just as important as blood kids. It is just that sometimes it is important to know the blood-line relationships (usually for medical purposes, sometimes just for curiosity purposes, etc). We know we can change the RELATIONSHIP TO FATHER (or MOTHER) fields, but this does not get indicated in the graphs/charts.

Re: [LegacyUG] Quick Question
Lots of different ways to manipulate this information. Here's mine. I use the census event more for research tracking and conclusion drawing. I enter the years in the event description field so that census is always the first event. This way I can see at a glance what years I have found (eg 1990-1905, 1920-1930). I also add a scan to the event photos, just because. The master source, is split by census year, state and county. Individual is that persons information, not head of household. Detail text is a cut and paste of the Ancestry description for that individual. And I connect another scan of the census to the source. Finally, I do not print the census event. I add residence and occupation events and source them with the census source. Once I have the first person set up, it's pretty easy to do the others in the family with a simple cut and paste of each individual's information. Now when I look at the source on the text/comment tab I can do a quick rundown of the info from each census, spot discrepancies and check the image if necessary.

Re: [LegacyUG] Two sourcing questions
Hi Tony Q2; I highlight the text on a webpage and paste it into Notepad, then clean it up (usually remove tabs and new paragraphs so that I have an easily read single paragraph for all the text) and then paste it into the source detail text (actual Source Text). That way it will print sensibly in Legacy reports and I am not dependant on the webpage for what I saw. By using Notepad all the odd formatting is removed. If I need to do a lot of find and replacing I use Word, and do a paste/special/text to get the text into Word without formatting. For me it is important that I have only one paragraph for the source text, so that reports are predictable in their layout.

Re: [LegacyUG] Two sourcing questions
Regarding question 1, as far as I can tell, there is not a SPECIFIC source for a location. Instead, it looks as if you would have to use the source that goes with BIRTH, DEATH, etc., which can include both the DATE, LOCATION and NOTES about those items. It sounds like you are already aware there is that extra NOTE field that can be used with any location, but it does not have a source of its own, apart from birth, death, etc. Jerry - MerriamFamilyTree.org On 11/14/2011 11:10 PM, Tony Rolfe wrote: Question 1.

To enter the couple you will have to falsely indicate that one member is male. If you have MS Access there are steps you can do to change that male to female but then there are implications where other utilities in Legacy such as a check repair of your database will undo that change. This web site includes instructions on that work around, if it still exists. I have not tested the link recently. http://www.moss-fritch.com/legacy.htm I could not bring up the instructions (the link I had was http://www.moss-fritch.com/legacy_7.html).
