Howard, This would be a great addition to the "Update Matches" function in LegacyFS. Maybe a tagged subset of the database could be produced when the Family Search ID is no longer linked for whatever reason. Ron Taylor

I think it's most likely that the individual has been merged into another on Family Tree by some other user. But, just to see if that's the case, have you tried to go into family Tree directly (on the LDS site) and try to bring up the 'missing' individual? Paul Gray -----Original Message----- From: Howard Cady [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: September-21-13 4:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Obsolete FamilySearch IDs I have noticed that the FamilySearch IDs for some of the individuals in my Legacy file are now obsolete as indicated by a red chain linkage symbol when I do a new FamilySearch that shows that individual. I assume this is caused by someone changing the current LDS FamilySearch database from the IDs used by the obsolete newFamilySearch. Is there a global search technique that will produce a list of all such obsolete individual FamilySearch IDs in my Legacy file? If not, is it a worthwhile suggestion for a future feature for Legacy and its FamilySearch features? I expect this to be a continuing item as the LDS FamilySearch data base and its preferred IDs continue to be updated/changed in the future.
