As someone with a Mc surname, I obviously have thoughts on this.
I always write my name McGlone, but my dad often writes his as Mc
Glone, and just as often McGlone (my grandfather was registered on his

There's no definitive standard

At the very bottom of the Marriage Information name under the section

a woman.
Some women choose to retain their maiden name after marriage or use a
hyphenated name, so this feature allows for that.

The woman is always entered in Legacy using her maiden name. Then Legacy by
default will show her husband's last name as her married name unless you
change it to be something different.

women's married names have NOT defaulted.
Yes I followed instructions per the website regarding Vista installation. I had
a second Legacy folder which I deleted - must have been left over from ver 6. I

A GEDCOM is only a text file and as such is independent of the o/s. More

Yes, I understand that. I was merely questioning why Legacy chose the easy

What I would really like to know is if/how I can un-attach a picture?
Sometimes I have attached it to the individual and would now rather it be

Or must I pull up the individaul and marriage and do it manually?
Everytime I try to update my legacy using the update on the legacy home tab,
