There are quite a few Events one might want to add to a person's record which can be either "done to" or "done by" and of course it makes a big difference in the Sentence structure.
One example: Godparents. One might want to record that somebody's Godparents were Joe Bloggs and Fanny Adams, or one might want to record that Joe Bloggs was a Godparent of Jane Doe. Another example: One might want to record that Joe Bloggs was granted Probate of Fanny Adams's Will, or one might to record that Fanny Adams's Will was Probated by Joe Bloggs. (Sometimes the only Source I have is the National Probate Calendar, not details of the actual Will.) I'd be interested to know how other Luggers deal with this situation. Failing coming up with another Event Name which makes sense (which I haven't had much success with) it seems to me that the best way is to ignore Description (which I usually use for most Events) and put all the relevant information in the Event Notes so the wording can be varied according to circumstance. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
