Could anyone tell me whether they have used Pocket Genealogist or GedStar
Pro that are available on the Legacy website. I would like to know which one
works the best for Legacy 7 and what kind of hand held device I need to use
them.
Thank you,

John,
There are two places you can put this. If you want to source it all together
with the marriage event itself, you can add the witnesses to the source
detail for marriage;
Or you can add it to marriage notes and source it separately.

Sorry for jumping in on this, but I would never leave him out if he was
there in the census. Those kinds of details sometimes come together later to
mean something, and not always what you thought they meant initially. In
your event details you can list him and tell the situation without listing
to use this design feature to help me with family-related events.
My evaluation of non-FTM platforms continues, and this is one of my

Good luck!

Hi,
I just wanted to add to this that you can do the unlink function from either

If you go to unlink from the wife, the children will be retained by the
husband.
