Carol, I can save newly scanned face pictures as rectangles or ovals but prefer the look of ovals in wall charts. The tangled branch of 2300 + islands doesn't have many photos available but grandmother's grandparents had framed large oval tintypes. 1901 census has online images for free so a method to print six inch wide source documents in the same chapter as the family stories would be an advantage over Legacy's limit of 5 inch right-justified source images in endnotes.
The whole point of my current file over 4000 names with 364 trees is finding more relatives to add to the main tree of 2303 names. I've found many of the people in 1871-1901 census index. Quite a few marriage records available for one county but many of the people lived in the other province where few events have been transcribed. Victor's non-Legacy direct line chart shows he is a descendant of two children from the 5th generation and also from two children from the 6th generation. The other genealogy program shows he is his own third and fourth cousin. Legacy relationship chart for his parents only shows descent from the 6th generation and a Legacy descendant "chart" is nearly double spaced on 13 pages. Females were usually listed as "single" under the first married name if they remarried and several blended households had children from two or more marriages. Sometimes hard to tell if there is one couple or a combination of first-middle-nicknames used at different times. The spelling of names online 1881 familysearch.org or CD-ROM version is way off compared to the same individuals transcribed by a county researcher and both transcriptions are worth checking. A few people worked in the USA and returned to Canada with a wife + young children. -- Elizabeth ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Wait" > I look at the tree finder and see if I had a lot of "islands" and to > check them to see how many were islands that needed to be reattached to > my file.
