Well Rita, one of us has a memory lapse because I remember it being the way it is now with no surname entered.
In the UK, or at least in England and Wales, that makes sense because it is not obligatory for the mother’s surname to be used where the father’s surname is not given. Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ From: Rita Lynn McKale Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2012 11:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Surname of children I just added two children to a woman. I do not have their fathers name. Legacy did not automatically fill in a surname. It seemed that in the past under these circumstances Legacy would use the mother’s surname in the absence of the fathers information. Am I remembering correctly or has it always been this way, and if not is it now supposed to be this way?
