I have an ancestor that had a child die the same  year he was born.  The
parents renamed their next child born (male also)  with the same name.  The
father's name was Samuel, the child that died was  named Samuel.  The next and
surviving child was named Samuel and is my  ancestor.  I can not find
reference to either of the sons having Jr.  attached to their names.

Our family has adopted the method  of naming: Samuel father, Samuel Jr.,
and the subsequent surviving son  as Samuel Jr. (No. 2).

I have lost the link designation of  bold font between the father and the
surviving son.  It picks up   correctly after that.

My question before I begin big changes in  my Legacy records is: is this
problem of linking direct ancestors because  of the (No. 2) designation part
of my name entry?

The (No. 2)  entry is in Title suffix.
