If all I know is the person's first name, that is all I enter. I don't put 'unknown' or any variant of that in the surname field.
If I later find out more, I create an AKA with appropriate sources, and then swap it for the current name. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Susan Jones said the following on 24/02/2014 6:39 p.m.: > > What would be the correct way to enter a person, whose surname you > don’t know? > > I have many where I have the father’s full name and his wife’s first > name only. > > Many thanks > > Susan > Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
