Fred,
Are you referring to the Descendant Book Report (Register Report)? If so, you can change the wording for Married Couple under the Wording 1 tab to read: ‘children of this family’ or wording of your choice. Would this work for you? Whatever you change it to will be reflected for all family groupings so it can’t be too specific. If this might work for you, you can also link each child to this mom-dad family grouping, then designate each child as biological for Dad and stepmom for the mother of this family group. Then under Report Options tick show child-parent relationship in the report options and the status clarification will print following each child. Please see example below (I don’t know if the minimum formatting will hold when I post this message) Children of this family: 2 M i. Joseph Doe2 was born on 10 Jun 1992 in Alaska.1 (Relationship to Father: Step, Relationship to Mother: Biological) …. Or handle it in the notes of each child. Joseph is Michael’s step-son. Mary From: Fred H [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, October 14, 2013 7:24 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Listing children in Descendant Narrative Report I am trying to list all 5 children in a Descendant Narrative Report. But here is the catch I'm having. Janet H. is the blood line of the family I am reporting on. Janet's 1st marriage to William H. They had 2 children, (I'll refer to them as WRH and CRH) Marriage ended in divorce. So far so good in the report. Now Janet's 2nd. marries Nick L. From a previous marriage, Nick L. had 3 children. (I'll refer to these children as MJL, MLL,and MAL) Nick and Janet did not have children from this marriage. Neither Janet nor Nick did any adoptions, all 5 children have their biological fathers last name. I realize that Nick L.'s children aren't bloodline as descendants in Janet's family. However, both Janet and Nick raised all 5 children as one family, they wish to show all 5 children in the Descendant Narrative report. The report shows Janet's 1st husband and 2 children correctly. Then it shows she marries Nick L. but no children lists. ( I have given Nick L. an "Unknown" wife for his 1st. marriage showing they had children MJL, MLL and MAL) So my question is...Is there a way, or how can I change the records so MJL, MLL and MAL will also show up on the Descendant Narrative report. (and not show Janet and Nick as having 3 children.) Thanks to all who might be able to help me with this. Fred H.
