Ron, I surely didn't mean to offend anyone. I was just thinking of the
technical step of 'publishing' to the web--not thinking more broadly. I don't
put my information on the internet, so I'm not really there yet.

Paula,
I certainly didn’t think that your comments were '”offensive” in any way.
Rather my comments were prompted by the fact that many people do not regard
publishing on the web as ‘publishing’. That is to say that they consider
anything on a website as to be freely available to them, for
Have you thought about using the User ID field in the lower left corner of the
individual screen. This field is searchable and you can have anything in it
numbers, text, etc.

Ah! Not really publishing but putting out on the internet. Gotcha.

I haven't looked into the User ID. Just thought it would be a number for a file

Paula,
Putting something out on the web *is* publishing, it is likely to be read by
more people than those who would read a book on the same subject as the
website, and you are displaying to the world at large how competent, or
otherwise, you are.
Which is why those of us who do publish on the

Eliz, that's an interesting way of doing it. I started trying to think of
something like that and adding it but was afraid it might be too non-standard.
So far I haven't added many maybes. It is good that Legacy gives lots of
leeway so we can do what we think will be helpful. Needs a lot of

I like that I can find my maybes and my I think. Anyone checking
my tree knows immediately that I don't have a world of confidence in
that G but it also brings me corrections and tidbits of advice from
people I suspect wouldn't write otherwise.

When I read this (posted as a comment in another topic) I wondered again if
there was a way to put individuals into your tree and identify them as
unsourced. I have a number of branches (not as important as my main line, but
still of interest) with names, dates, children, spouses, etc that are

The source icon is Grey if there are no souces for an individual in
the family view.
You could add a new Master source called UNSOURCED and attach that to
each person you have unsourced and then you can see a list of people
who have that source named UNSOURCED.

But there are no source icons for the children unless you go into their page,
are there? I do like the idea of adding the UNSOURCED master source so at least
when I'm ready to work on those, I can pull them up.
Thanks!
