Just curious, but why does it matter if "some of the main people had
high numbers"?  I have been researching for nearly 10 years and started
in Legacy by entering the people from a hand-written tree compiled by a
relative.  Because of that, one of my 6th Great Grandfather is number 1
but another of my 6th Great Grandfathers I only found a month ago so his
RIN is 4517.  (I happen to be RIN 221.)

If you want "important people" to have low numbers are you going to
renumber every time your research throws up another direct-line ancestor?

I use RINs as part of the UserID and use the RIN or UserID to identify
everyone in documents or pictures and in file names.  As long as I use
the right number it doesn't matter a jot to me whether the number is
high, low or in-between.
