I think you need two tags there. Tag the first list, (with tag 1, for
instance). Then do a search for direct ancestors and tag those with a
second tag number (tag 2, for instance). Then do a search for
Individuals with Tag 1 and Tag 2.

When I am working off of a long search list...I print it to a

To keep it simple, I always include the RIN numbers which makes it

As I work my list, I cross thru the finished ones.

Why not just untag the ones you're worked on, unless you plan on using
that same tag group for something else.
Either double click on the X in the Search List or click on the tag
in the Family View, Pedigree View or Individual Information window.

Sherry, the approach allows for tag group re-use which I have found useful on
