Another stab in the dark would be similar to what Paul said but I would think that perhaps you added an AKA for John T. and did not enter a surname in the surname field when you when you added the a.k.a. James Thomas. Likewise for Michael J.

Just a stab in the dark.......... Paul Gray From: Gene Wheeler [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: March-06-15 1:28 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Mass update surnames Mike, What I mean is that, when I generate a surname list showing only the surname "UNKNOWN", there will be a long list of people in the surname list that follow the following format: UNKNOWN, John Thomas UNKNOWN, Michael James etc. etc. Then in addition to these persons with unknown surnames, there will be a few people with KNOWN surnames and KNOWN given names, in alphabetical order, some before the UNKNOWN surnames and some after the UNKNOWN surnames. In my case, there are something like 354 people with surnames listed as UNKNOWN, and three people listed before them alphabetically: e.g.: BAKER, Susan A. COMSTOCK, Mary Elizabeth THOMAS, Edward UNKNOWN, John Thomas UNKNOWN, Michael James etc. etc. Hope this explains what is happening.

You'll have to be a bit more explicit with the substance of your query. -- Regards, Mike Fry (Jhb) 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://support.legacyfamilytree.com Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
