Thank you for that clarification!  That makes sense the baby would go to a

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Legacy Family Tree (Genealogy software) sale through Mon, Nov. 26

2018-11-21 Thread 'Kathy Cardoza' via Azores Genealogy
Speaking about using Legacy on a Mac… Cheri was correct in that you can do that 
using any number of Virtualization programs such as Parallels, Fusion, or 
Apples free Bootcamp. I use Parallels myself and find that it works very, very 
well. It puts an entire Windows computer within your Mac. The deal is though, 
that you buy the virtualization software but then you must also have a legal 
copy of Windows to install on it it just as if it was a regular computer. With 
this set up you can run any windows genealogy software program or any other 
windows program on your Mac. If anyone reading this is interested or has 
anymore questions, you can write me privately so that I could elaborate for you 
the pros and cons. There are other options, as well.

To add to Cheri’s comments about a computer-based genealogy app versus the 
online apps, I would say also, that I would rather have a computer-based 
program. You have much more control over your data and don’t have to rely on 
whether or not ancestry or any of the other sites are down or not functioning 
correctly or any other number of problems that they could have.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Legacy Family Tree (Genealogy software) sale through Mon, Nov. 26

2018-11-21 Thread Cheri Mello
Hi Bill R,

I'm going to have to take a guess (or assumption) on some of this. Lots of
companies that deal with genealogists like to have the words "family tree"
in their title. And the GED acronym comes from GEnealogy Data.

Family Tree (which I will assume is Family Tree Maker) has a GEDCOM export
feature. All genealogy programs have this (software for your computer and
cloud based with the exception of FamilySearch). For the genealogy programs
on your computer, it's generally File>Export and you want to pick GEDCOM
5.5. For Ancestry, follow these directions: https://goo.gl/akRKwP (I typed "
ancestry.com create gedcom" so the same search can be performed with My
Heritage or Geni).

GEDMatch is NOT a genealogy software. It's a third party tool to help
analyze your DNA. They just borrowed the GED from GEDCOM. They should have
called it
DNAMatch if you ask me. But they didn't ask! :)

(For the inquiring minds...GEDCOM is an acronym for GEnealogy Data
COMmunication. It was created by the Mormon church back in the 1980s so all
genealogy software platforms would have a way to communicate and share data
with each other).

After you have your GEDCOM file from whichever tree (or wherever it was
stored), you'll do a File>Import of your data. Legacy may read directly
from some genealogy software programs (PAF, Ancestral Quest, and TMG). Some
things will wander in the GEDCOM import and you'll need to fix them. You'll
also find out things you may have been entering incorrectly in your
previous program. But a clean-up beats re-entering thousands of people!
Good luck,

All modern genealogy programs will share data between each other and between 
different platforms via Gedcom. It’s not a perfect process but generally moves 
over most data. There can be differences, though, that will need to be 
addressed and checked upon. Hope that helps.

I have over 180 “Maria de Jesus” in my program, try and find the right on in 
dealing with that number. I could not do that with an online program. My 
program also lets me us AKA’s in sorting. I have one 2nd great grandmother that 
was known by six different names in records. Try showing that on ancestry. I 
also belong to a help group for the software I use and we help each other solve

For me, the computer based genealogy software programs enhance the research 
process, the online cloud-based programs do nothing to help. That's one of the 
biggest things for me. How many Manuel Silvas do we all have? There's Manuel 
Silva, our ancestor; his cousin, Manuel Silva (born just a year later); his 
uncle Manuel Silva; his nephew Manuel Silva, and then there's that *other* 
Manuel Silva family that we don't think we are related to but we have to keep 
track of since one of them is Manuel Silva married to Maria da Sousa, just like 
our Manuel Silva. LOL How do you know which Manuel Silva to pick? With 
Ancestry, you can search for a name in your tree, but unless you've memorized 
your Manuel Silva's birth year (or death year), you may pick the wrong one from 
the list. With Legacy (and other stand alone genealogy software programs), you 
have other information to help you (and you can customize it to YOUR liking!)

image.png

 

In the example above, if I don't remember my Maria's birth (or death) date, I 
can use her parents or 1st spouse to help me pick the correct one.

 

Many of these genealogy software programs have various help groups. The have 
Facebook groups, videos, webinars, and (gasp!) real, live in-person meetings at 
a library or genealogical society. I have to drive an hour (each way) to attend 
mine. I don't go to all of them, but I just make a day out of it, but 
carpooling with another local. We have lunch, drive there, have the 2 hour 
meeting and drive home.

 

So many features are available with these types of programs. You can try Legacy 
and RootsMagic for free. Yes, you need to find the time to sit down and mess 
around with them. After you pick one, you need to find the time to learn it. I 
learned as I went along. I did what I needed to do and when I needed something 
different, I had to go out and learn that. 

 

Sure hope someone else comes up with why a stand alone genealogy software 
program is essential to your research!

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Legacy Family Tree (Genealogy software) sale through Mon, Nov. 26

2018-11-21 Thread Richard Francis Pimentel
There is so much more information you can keep on your own computer in this 
software than any online cloud program. It is also good for sharing your 
information in GEDCOM’s with other researchers. While I do not use this 
particular program there others on this list that do and can attest to it. The 
key to any program that is on your computer is to have a back up on a drive or 
other device or use a cloud backup.

Yes, Legacy is a Windows/PC software. Currently, you can use it if you are a 
Mac running VM Fusion, Parallels, and BootCamp (I think). I'm not a Mac user, 
but Kathy Cardoza is and she runs lots of Windows products on her Mac and uses 
Legacy. (Note: The Mac version of Legacy Family Tree is still under development 
as of August 2017).

 

Why have a genealogy software program on your computer when you use Ancestry, 
My Heritage, Geni, FamilySearch, or whatever on the Internet? 1) You have more 
tools at your disposal. 2) You have more ways to analyze your data. 3) You can 
print charts 4) There's mapping features. 5) You can back it up to the Legacy 
cloud so if your computer goes on the blink, you'll have a back up. I'm sure 
there's many more. The online vendors are more of a family tree display. You 
can have your genealogy software program, create a Gedcom, and upload it to 
your online tree. Legacy syncs with My Heritage and FamilySearch (well, if you 
want it to).

For the record. The baby was given to be raised by Maria de Jesus.  She was The 
nursemaid not the Godmother. The exposto baby was given the number 941 and was 
entered in the book of registration.

Thank you all for your responses!  This is really interesting to me.  I 
have not had an orphaned baby associated with my family before.  So, my 
relative was listed as someone who would be godmother to these babies.  

The link provided an interesting history.  I had heard of the "wheel" 
before, but didn't really understand the concept.  Now I have a much better 
idea of what it was.

Thanks again for the help on this record!
