Re: [LegacyUG] Numbers appearing on Descendant Report

[Bert van Kootwijk]

A guess: I think these RIN MH numbers are generated by My Heritage Family Trees. When importing a Gedcom made by My Heritage these RIN MH numbers are not recognized by Legacy; and therefore put into the General Notes fields. Hope this helps.

In fact they are unique eg: BIRT:RIN MH:IF7 DSCR:RIN MH:IF8 RESI:RIN MH:IF9   Shirley   ----- Original Message ----- From: Kathy Thompson To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2013 11:01 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Numbers appearing on Descendant Report Thought: have you copied a source from one person to another person in the same family? Thought: pick a person who has these numbers, write down the RIN numbers they have, and then see who that RIN number matches up with in YOUR own tree. I highly fought this has anything to do with ancestry as I have none of these and I use ancestry all the time.
