Hi Jane in Phoenix,

 

What exactly do you mean by ‘transferring the individual’ ?

How about transferring the individual and connecting it in your program.

Thanks Brian,

 

So, it appears that no parents are recorded on FamilySearch.org for this 
individual.  So why can I not use the FS popup to simply click the "move to 
right hand side" for this individual's father and mother and done...?  The only 
option I get for the parents is ‘unlink’…

 



 

Must I go onto the web site FamilySearch.org to manually add each parent using 
the ID that I already have in Legacy, but cannot perform that function from the 
FS popup dialog?

 

Thanks,

Andrew

You have eliminated two of the three possible reasons so by elimination check 
for the third reason "The person is linked to the wrong individual in 
FamilySearch." That becomes the most likely.

 

I just had a case in my own file where my file had different parents for the FS 
person. The parents did not display and had the red chain icon on the My Legacy 
Person side of the screen because of that difference.

 

A careful examination of the sources in my file revealed that I had linked my 
Legacy person to the wrong FS person based on similar names of parents but I 
had added an incorrect spouse from a marriage record. 

Examining the source details for the marriage revealed that the incorrect 
person was born in Ireland according to the marriage source while my person was 
born in Canada.

 

I unlinked my person by deleting the incorrect FSID. A new search found the 
correct FSID so the person is now linked to the correct parents both in my file 
and in FamilySearch.org. I have unlinked the incorrect spouse and children, 
deleted a whole bunch of events which applied to the incorrect person and will 
now have to rebuild the person's family (FS has a different spouse and list of 
children).
