Jane, Are you talking about this... Thomas Simmons (William, James, James, Silas, James) with superscript numbers after each generation?
This is something specific to descendant reports. You don't see this in ancestor reports. I double checked Numbering Your Genealogy: Basic Systems, Complex Families and International Kin by Curran, Cran and Wray which is considered the standard for numbering genealogical reports. Sosa-Stradonitz reports (ancestor or Ahnentafel reports) do not include the lineage or generational numbers after the entry person (page 14) Michele Technical Support [email protected] www.legacyfamilytree.com -----Original Message----- From: Jane Sarles [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 7, 2015 1:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Identifying lines on reports I have seen reports that, after each direct ancestor's name, gives in parenthesis their line - names for father, grandfather, ggrandfather, etc., back to the first of the name. Is there a way to do that on an an a Legacy Ancestor Book report? I did a book for my granddaughter and she has a problem, when getting back 8 or 10 generations, in knowing how the people relate to her parents (which side of the family they are on. The report gives the generation name - 8th great grandparents, etc., but she can't tell which side of her family they belong to. Jane S.
