Well, you must have created your Conflicting Birth Information fact, because Legacy doesn't have that as one of it's defaults: just the Alt. events. To me, the advantage of using the Alt. Birth event, and you can have many of them, is that each one can be sourced separately. Thus, you don't have to lump all your sources on the primary Birth Date and Location. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg 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).
