Tom, I'm not using it for a formal One Name Study, but yes, I use Legacy to enter multiple unrelated lines of the same surname. I put them all in the same database; I do NOT create a separate database for each line. There are no problems at all. In fact, it is quite helpful to be able to search on a name and see immediately which line the person belongs to. If I put them in a separate database, I'd have to remember and/or search each separate database which to me would be a pain.

This would involve multiple unrelated lines with the same surname. Suggestions? Just give up? Thanks all - appreciate the advice.
