Can we add a source button to include in the Relationship Calculator, to have a print choice. It might be a bit cumbersome, but you could have it print only the tagged sources. This could be done better (IMO) in Publishing Center. Then you can print the RC, finishing with the desired Sources. In each case, I would want to pick through the sources, each time I print the RC anyway. Or did you want all the descendants, or a report including only the tagged children?

There is a Lineage report, that shows the spouse and siblings of each MALE in a direct line. You specify where to start, and it works back from there. What I suggested was the same CONTENT (spouses and siblings of each PERSON in a direct line), but allow us to select the starting AND ending person, then the program has to work from person A to person B, which might include one or more FEMALES. I think you can see how the logic to work through the lineage is the same as one "leg" of the RC, once the ending person is determined (the common ancestor). In this new report, we would enter the ancestor, so it would only use the second half of the RC logic. (I also asked to be able to include source citations.) --Paula in Texas ----- Original Message ---- From: RICHARD SCHULTHIES <fourpa...@verizon.net> To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Tuesday, September 15, 2009 10:48:04 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Creating Books--direct descendent chart It is already there. I was asking what was wanted, that wasn't in the Tools\Relationship Calculator, and did not understand the answer. Unless this is for Deluxe only. I have always had Deluxe so never new what might be missing.

It IS an important aspect to genealogy, after all, and since FTM has had such a capability for umpteen years, I am sure Legacy programmers can do likewise....

I noticed the same results trying to run lineage reports for Mayflower Society and other lineage society applications. I ended up tagging each individual and running some report (don't remember which) from there.

I needed the Lineage report, but I needed it to "know" the lineage between me and my Patriot. The Lineage report now just starts at one end and goes through the male line. I my lineage went through my mother and her mother, then all men. Does this sound line anything anyone else would use? It's sort of a combination of the Lineage report (shows spouse and siblings) and one side of the Relationship Calculator (which works its way through men and women). Think I might just make a suggestion...

Thanks for explaining it better than I could. Neither a DNA chart nor Relationship will do the same thing.
