For me the back arrow functions by going back to the previous person you had
highlighted. If I go from Asa Brown to David Clark Brown (son) then from
David to RIN 99 (John Huffman, Asa's wife's father), then clicking on back
arrow reverses the path I took. Clicking on it takes me back to the grandson
(David Clark), and clicking on it takes me back to Asa. This is how it
supposed to work, or at least what I thought it was supposed to do. Is it
not doing this?

If I start with Asa, go to his first child Joshua, then go to the second
child Samuel, and then go to the third child Rev. William, to get back to
the parent, I have to click back arrow to go back to Samuel (the previous
person), then click the back arrow again to go back to Joshua (Not the
parent Asa), and press back arrow one more time to get to Asa. This is how
it supposed to work, or at least what I thought it was supposed to do. Is it
not doing this?

Wayne,

I noticed the same thing when I first started using Legacy. I don't use the
back or forward buttons because of this. They really should have it function
like any web browser.
