Actually, it is my tree that I downloaded from Ancestry, I do not sync legacy and Ancestry because I don't want to put everyone on Ancestry. Than I found relatives on ancestry, I attached more people to my tree, so that was the only way I could think of to get a new family file on legacy. Does that make sense? I am on my first cup of coffee, lol.
