I have an ancestor I have done a tree for with Legacy and I followed only male 
lines down. If a female married into another family name, the tree stopped for 
her line. so, I have one “origin”, the first person I have recorded in my 
family. But, if I were to follow all female lines down I would be into 
potentially scores of other family names (the ones the females married into). 
If I only follow those families down from the point at which the daughter 
marries into that family and all of her descendants, it all points back up the 
line to the original male and his wife in my tree. But if I go to a female and 
the family she marries into, and follow that family UP into that family, it 
seems I have created a tree with more than one origin point, potentially scores 
of origin points for all of the families the females marry into. I do not know 
what selecting "home" means anymore at that point. there are multiple "homes".

Is this the normal expectation? Is there a way to select different “Home” 
points in Legacy to follow a family down. I only have the free Legacy and so 
have limited “views”, such as “family”.
