Rob, Check the Legacy reports and charts *during* data entry to make sure you and intended readers of family books are happy with the results. It is difficult to enter blended families and single parents, especially if a file needs to be shared with relatives using different genealogy programs.
More than ten years ago, early genealogy programs were limited to one set of parents for each child. Multiple parents for the same child can be entered in most programs now, but each one uses different methods and the relationships may not be the same after a transfer. PAF is limited to the same relationship of a child to two parents and Legacy 5 allows multiple sources for each child-parent relationship. -- Elizabeth ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob Weiss" I'd value a pointer to some reasonably concise guide to accepted standards adopted by genealogists. There is so much info out there that I find it overwhelming. A method of identifying unknown names is a good example.
