In report options for that descendant report (and any other book style report you use). Click the Event options button after selecting which events to include.

On the Event Options screen make sure there is a check box in the Add Event Notes and also in the Add shared event notes if applicable.

If you have those options turned on and the notes still do not show then you will have to check each event for the person and verify that on the event screen there is a check box in the Add the event notes to the sentence.

also go to View > Master Lists > Event Definition and check that the events causing your problem have a check in the add notes to sentences box.

I looked for a global way to change the add notes to sentences for all events and event definitions but I could not find one.

Thanks, Joy, for a good explanation.  However, when doing the Descendants report, the "notes" section of events does not print nor show up in a preview.  Any suggestions as to how to correct this absence?

Hello Joy,

Hopefully my response will bring you some.


Descendants Report
================
Menu - Reports
    Descendant or Descendant Narrative Book.   (I have used Descendant
Narrative book exclusively)
        (Complete the various submenus as fully as is needed.)
        (For number of Generations to report, ensure you see
"Generations" on the "Options" page)
    Print or Preview.    (I suggest Preview first to verify you are
asking for the correct stuff.)

To select starting person, see "Create Report for Descendants of:"  at base
of same "Options" Page.



Ancestor Report
=============
Menu -     Reports
    Ancestor Book
    (For number of Generations to report, ensure you see "Generations"
on the "Options" page)
    Print or Preview.    (I suggest Preview first to verify you are
asking for the correct stuff.)

To select starting person (to go backward from), see "Create Report for the
Ancestors of:"  at base of same "Options" Page.



I hope this helps.  I have used both successfully many times.

Hello All

I want to send a chart or gedcom with my great- grand-fathers descendants,
only coming down to my dad,  but each time I try I get my mothers side of
the family and even my husbands side of the family, so nearly my whole
family tree, I am using Legacy 9.

Can someone give me some instructions please?

Also How would I do his Ancestors back 3 generations please?

Thanks

Joy Light
