I have NOT done a Single Surname file, but I am doing a Single Location file.
It is putting families to those buried in a small old mining cemetery in Newcastle, Washington. One just needs to look and check out when adding some one new, that they are not already there as they are a relative to someone already entered. First started out I had mainly single person “Islands” in the tree. But as I added they were starting to connect through marriages and etc. Thanks, David C Abernathy Email disclaimers ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message represents the official view of the voices in my head. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- <http://www.SchmeckAbernathy.com> http://www.SchmeckAbernathy.com == All outgoing and incoming mail is scanned by F-Prot Antivirus == From: Poppke Genealogy [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, February 24, 2014 2:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Single Surname Study II Mary, Ron, Thanks for the quick reply. I'm new to this software and don't fully understand the best way to do things yet. In Legacy Deluxe 8.0, I tag unrelated individuals and then create a search for that tag in the Name List. I'm currently experimenting with adding fields to the 2nd and 3rd lines of List Report Options to get a format I like. I think this will give me enough information - Names, birth, death, etc. - to be able to screen for new individuals or relationships while away from my computer in a library. Since Legacy is a computer (as opposed to server based, I haven't tried DropBox yet) based program, I'd like to have printed material to refer to on trips to libraries to aid in research. I will look at the Event reports also. Is there a way to print multiple Individual Reports at once, using tags? Thanks, Ted -------------- Hello, I'm using Legacy Deluxe 8.0. Is there a best practice to organize dozens to hundreds of unrelated individuals as part of a single surname study? I'm guessing advanced tagging? Can I get decent reports?
