Hi Hugo, Wow, that's a lot of information. It's not at all like what the American genealogy TV shows televise (Who Do You Think Your Are? Finding Your Roots with Henry Louis Gates, Long Lost Family). A couple of those celebrities have been on a talk show and in their interview they say the producers (and researchers) had to work on it a year or 2 before they began to film. And what do they film? A book being pulled from a shelf with their family marked, a scroll being rolled out with their complete family, etc! Rather misleading for those in the viewing audience who have never done their genealogy It does take a lot of work and the shows don't always make that clear.
You've got a nice document with some great photos. Make sure your have your genealogy in your own personal program that you have control over. If you want to share it publicly (via Ancestry.com, My Heritage, Geni.com, etc) go right ahead, but make sure you have everything on your own program. You would periodically update it on the public sites, if you chose to go that route. Legacy Family Tree (www.legacyfamilytree.com) can be put into the Portuguese language (continental). Their Standard Edition is free. Their Deluxe edition has 100 more bells and whistles. I'm not sure if the languages is part of the Standard edition of Legacy or part of the Deluxe. Maybe a Legacy user can chime in here. With RootsMagic (their Essentials is free), you can translate the template yourself - the codes are there for you, you'd just have to type everything else into Portuguese. www.rootsmagic.com P.S. Remember your DNA Transfer to FTDNA is on your to-do list. :) Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada On Thu, Feb 8, 2018 at 9:55 PM, Hugo Campos <hug...@gmail.com> wrote: > To Cheri and the group — > > I just wanted to thank you all, particularly Cheri for sharing some key > resources with me, and Júlio for his *enormous* help.
