I believe the elizh89.fdb.conflict file exists because you are storing your family file in Dropbox or one of the other systems like MS One Drive, Google drive etc. and you had the file open on two computers at once or opened the file on your computer before the file was updated from a new version on the web site for that service.
The elizh89.ldb file is a record locking file created by the database when a file is open. It warns users opening the file a second time that it is in use. If there was an abnormal close of Legacy and that file still exists delete it before trying to open your file again.
