I like to include these possibilities, complete with hypothesis notes of course, in reports so others reading the report might say - yes, that is correct, or I often heard my mum say the same thing etc. and may lead to further discoveries. Likewise, someone may say I know for a fact that isn't the case because of x, y and z. If I hadn't shown my hypothesis it might not have jogged someone else's memory. As long as your hypothesis is documented as such I don't regard it as erroneous reporting. Cheers, Jan
From: Byron [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, 10 August 2011 15:18 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Possible parentage I do something similar to your method Virginia. I also use the ‘create event’ feature, but I use 3 events for such – Possible Parent, Possible Spouse, and Possible Child. It allows me to find those people with information I need to further investigate rather quickly using the <View>-<Master Lists>-<Event Definition> method. Selecting the appropriate event and then <show list> allows me to edit-/-print-/-tag-/-create search lists as needed. And like you, the ‘privacy’ feature makes sure that the information is not erroneously reported.
