If you mouse over the three downward facing arrows you will see that this
brings up the last report you have created. The book icon opens up all the
reports, from which you can choose which one you want.

The Individual Reports window can be accessed by clicking on the Icon that
looks like a few pages with turned down edges and a picture of a printer on
front and right next to it are three downward facing arrows.  You can click
on either one to get to the Individual Reports window.  Why are they both
there? Is there any difference or any reason to click on one instead of the
other?

This is a very small thing, I know, but I was just wondering...Kathy

Re: [LegacyUG] Entering adoptions

[Genealogy mail]

Scott,
To add additional parents, just bring up the person you want to add additional 
parents to and right-click on either the mother or father and pick the option 
“Add additional parents”. A window will pop open with the current parents 
highlighted so you can do several things:

1. For the current parents you can change the Child Status and the 
relationships to the Father and Mother of the parents and privatize the 
relationship if needed, Edit marriage, edit father, edit mother.
2. Add New Parents (if not in your database)
3. Link to Existing Parents (if one or both are in the database)
4.Unlink from Child (if you found that the child did not belong to either of 
them and you need to add different parents.
5. Source the information.
6. Click the Help button which will bring up the help file for this screen.

Pretty powerful screen!!
Your welcome,
Russ Strong

Scott,
Do you have any proof that Maud was William’s child? Seems strange that if she 
was his, that once he married, that he would leave her behind. Perhaps she was 
orphaned in 1881 and Elizabeth adopted her sometime between 1881 and 1891 
(adoption record?). If any of this is true then she would not be listed as a 
child of William but rather as an adopted child of Elizabeth. You would then go 
into the child settings and change her status as adopted and neither parent as 
natural. Source the info as the 1891 census with a note of your conclusions or 
what ever you found out. Leave her Name as Maud Mary Bulmer with the AKAs as I 
previously suggested. Then if you ever find who her natural parents were then 
you can add additional parents and show her relationship to them.

 She appears as a boarder in the 1881 census with William, his siblings and

Scott,
Another way to do it would be to go to William’s screen and add a wife with 
just the surname of Bulmer (the listed surname of the child and easier to check 
for a birth record also), then when the marriage screen opens put a check mark 
in the box “This couple did not marry”.  In the marriage date put about 1878 
and then in place use the census location. Change the status box to “Friends”. 
This will change the labels so they don’t show Husband and Wife, but will show 
Male and Female, will show the date and place (Friends) (Did not marry) and 
will show “Partnership” on any reports. Then create the child Maud Mary Bulmer. 
Then source all of these to the 1881 census. Then create the AKA for Maud M. 
Marsh and cite the 1891 census, and an AKA for Maud Marsh Hingley and cite the 
1901 census. So now you have a father and a mother with an unknown first name. 
You could do a search in the 1871 census for the Bulmer surname to see if you 
find any candidates for a female around the same age as William and see if the 
Marsh family is also in the same area. If the child was in the Marsh home and 
William was the father, perhaps the mother died in childbirth and there may 
also be a death record to search for.
Hope this helps.

 To properly do this [in my opinion], is to attach Maud to her true father 
William [even if he was only 16 at the time] and with an unknown [for now] 
mother.  Legacy can handle this and when you go back to William and look at the 
child settings, you can then select from the list that Maud was illegitimate.  
She will show as Maud M. Marsh due to her fathers surname, and if done 
properly, Elizabeth Marsh should show up as her grandmother.  You can add the 
name changes under the AKA label, and show the source as the 1901 census for 
the Maud Marsh Hingley entry.

Hi Scott,

   You might also consider the additional step that Russ suggested and just put 
in the surname (Bulmer) for the mother and leave for now the given name blank 
or what I do is enter N. N. (no name).  This is presuming that the Bulmer label 
is that of the mother and not from another part of the family.  And I have a 
few in my files just like the one you created...so was quite familiar on 
leaving one of the "parents" blank.  Have a couple unmarried females with 
childen where the childs surname is listed in the records with that of the 
mother, so that just requires an edit of the child record's surname to select 
that of the mother.

Scott,
Another way to do it would be to go to William’s screen and add a wife with just
the surname of Bulmer (the listed surname of the child and easier to check for a
birth record also), then when the marriage screen opens put a check mark in the
box “This couple did not marry”.  In the marriage date put about 1878 and then
in place use the census location. Change the status box to “Friends”. This will
change the labels so they don’t show Husband and Wife, but will show Male and
Female, will show the date and place (Friends) (Did not marry) and will show
“Partnership” on any reports. Then create the child Maud Mary Bulmer. Then
source all of these to the 1881 census. Then create the AKA for Maud M. Marsh
and cite the 1891 census, and an AKA for Maud Marsh Hingley and cite the 1901
census. So now you have a father and a mother with an unknown first name. You
could do a search in the 1871 census for the Bulmer surname to see if you  find
any candidates for a female around the same age as William and see if the Marsh
family is also in the same area. If the child was in the Marsh home and William
was the father, perhaps the mother died in childbirth and there may also be a
death record to search for.
Hope this helps.

RE: [LegacyUG] Entering adoptions

[William Boswell]

Not so strange at all!  I have one family where the husband had three children 
already when he married the second wife.  Shortly after marriage, all the 
children were put into an orphanage and the couple disappeared.  Another 
family, did the same thing.  Two children were put into orphanages for a short 
period of time then were reunited.



I know in the DC area, and probably other areas, when the father died the 
children were considered orphans and were often placed into the care of other 
relatives.  This was common in my family so it is a nightmare trying to figure 
out how the child is connected.

Scott,

Do you have any proof that Maud was William’s child? Seems strange that if she 
was his, that once he married, that he would leave her behind. Perhaps she was 
orphaned in 1881 and Elizabeth adopted her sometime between 1881 and 1891 
(adoption record?). If any of this is true then she would not be listed as a 
child of William but rather as an adopted child of Elizabeth. You would then go 
into the child settings and change her status as adopted and neither parent as 
natural. Source the info as the 1891 census with a note of your conclusions or 
what ever you found out. Leave her Name as Maud Mary Bulmer with the AKAs as I 
previously suggested. Then if you ever find who her natural parents were then 
you can add additional parents and show her relationship to them.

Hi Gene,
You took me into a whole new realm on this one.  Followed your instructions
(step by step :-) ) and really worked out well.   Exactly what I was looking
for.  I must say, I didn't even know you could display relationships like that.
Thank you for your time and detailed instructions.  Very much appreciated.
With thanks,
Scott B

Scott,
Another way to do it would be to go to William’s screen and add a wife with just
the surname of Bulmer (the listed surname of the child and easier to check for a
birth record also), then when the marriage screen opens put a check mark in the
box “This couple did not marry”.  In the marriage date put about 1878 and then
in place use the census location. Change the status box to “Friends”. This will
change the labels so they don’t show Husband and Wife, but will show Male and
Female, will show the date and place (Friends) (Did not marry) and will show
“Partnership” on any reports. Then create the child Maud Mary Bulmer. Then
source all of these to the 1881 census. Then create the AKA for Maud M. Marsh
and cite the 1891 census, and an AKA for Maud Marsh Hingley and cite the 1901
census. So now you have a father and a mother with an unknown first name. You
could do a search in the 1871 census for the Bulmer surname to see if you find
any candidates for a female around the same age as William and see if the Marsh
family is also in the same area. If the child was in the Marsh home and William
was the father, perhaps the mother died in childbirth and there may also be a
death record to search for.
Hope this helps.

Scott,

 To properly do this [in my opinion], is to attach Maud to her true father
William [even if he was only 16 at the time] and with an unknown [for now]
mother.  Legacy can handle this and when you go back to William and look at the
child settings, you can then select from the list that Maud was illegitimate. 
She will show as Maud M. Marsh due to her fathers surname, and if done properly,
Elizabeth Marsh should show up as her grandmother.  You can add the name changes
under the AKA label, and show the source as the 1901 census for the Maud Marsh
Hingley entry.

Hoping someone can guide me thru how to enter the following information
correctly.

William Henry Marsh b1862 has an illegitimate child, Maud Mary Bulmer, in 1878. 
She appears as a boarder in the 1881 census with William, his siblings and
mother, Elizabeth Marsh (a widow).  In 1888 William marries and moves on, but
Maud appears in the 1891 census as Maud M Marsh, daughter of William's mother,
and in 1901, after Elizabeth Marsh marries Timothy Hingley, Maud appears as Maud
Marsh Hingley.

I sure would appreciate some help.  When I try to do it, it begins to look like
Elizabeth had 3 husbands and one was her sonnot good!

I keep my Legacy files.
I use the pedigree type pages in Legacy, it's just my
