[LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
Hi, I would like the view of the users of this forum on how to register a 'probable' town. So someone is born (ofcourse always) but it is nopt entirely sure in what town. If I now would note down in Legacy (e.g.) London? or soemthing like prob. London then it would enter as another town/city than London. That is not what I want. Is there something similare for names of cities like approximate dates? Or how would you advice? -- Greetings, Rob Vader Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Re: [LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
I don't add something I don't know for sure. You can create a To-Do to confirm the locaton of the event. According to the Help file under Location: Adding, it says Preposition The default preposition before a location name is in. For example, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada or in London, England. Some locations require a different preposition, such as on or at. For example, on Long Island, New York or at sea. You can change the preposition in the Preposition field.

Re: [LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
Rob: If I’m not sure of the town I usually omit it and go to the next higher jurisdiction—township or county. If I’m not even totally sure of that I use something like “Wentworth County [probably], Upper Canada.” The brackets are generally recognized as “editorial comments” and putting that comment *after* the location causes it to at least sort adjacent to another Wentworth County in the Location List. Your “London [probably]” would have the same effect. I do the same when I’m fairly sure of the country but have no actual evidence: “Norway [probably]” to clarify that a relative was not born in the US.

Rob, If I do not know it for certain then I do not put it in, but may create a ToDo. However, I do include the part of the location I am certain of (if any) eg. a county - Middlesex, or even England.

Re: [LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
Dennis, what about when a Legacy file or gedcom gets transferred to a website? Will the probably still be ignored? Anyway, when I'm not sure of a location, I place a note in the note field adjacent to the location field (i.e. birth, death, marriage). That way the location names don't get duplicated. Dennis M.

It should get transferred as if it were just another location. The prepositions file is just a list of prepositions that are to be ignored when sorting locations in the Master Location List. As a matter of fact, there was a bug (don't know if it was ever fixed) involving these prepositions ... if you included a Location Index in a book or report, a location like probably Cuyahoga Co., Ohio appeared in the index under the letter 'P' instead of 'C'. So the book or report was not looking at the preposition file like the Master Location List dialog was. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools/Custom Programming) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.

RE: [LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
I’m probably not doing this the ‘correct’ way but it works for me – if I find a birth on, say, the New South Wales registry office online index, it will give the district where the birth was registered. Assuming the parents went to their closest registry office, I give the birth location as that town plus the word ‘district’ so a birth location might read: Burwood district, New South Wales, Australia. It just shows me that they were probably in that general area at the time of the birth. Of course this also adds “Burwood district” to my locations list, but that doesn’t particularly worry me.

Re: [LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
Erica, I do not know about Australia, but in England it has never been necessary to register the birth in the place where the child was born. For marriages and deaths it is true to say that these events are registered in the place of the event. Thus, a registration district does not necessarily include the place of birth. When I do use them I include the Words Registration district after the name eg. Barton upon Irwell registration District, Lancashire, England.

Re: [LegacyUG] Advice on name for 'probable' town
I should add that managing the master location list that contains some Poss. and Prob. has not been an issue at all for me. I do go in every now and then and clean up sources, but honestly, it's not a huge effort. On Mon, Oct 3, 2011 at 7:44 PM, Jean Suplick jean.supl...@gmail.com wrote: I know many would disagree with my approach, but I use Poss. McKinney, Collin Co., Texas. Using the Poss. prefix works for me because I don't share my database or GEDCOM with anyone. And any report I create is scrutinized to contain only the info I wish to communicate with the recipient. Using Poss., or for that matter Prob., is my own personal indicator that this is not substantiated fact.However, I will link any sources supporting that conclusion to the event in question. Jean S.

Re: [LegacyUG] Caption under image
Another possibility is to copy your Legacy captions to the images themelves is to use a deluxe feature of Ltools http://zippersoftware.com/wp/ltools/current-ltools-features/deluxe-ltools-features/ Set IPTC Data – copies Legacy Caption, Desc, Date, FileID, Surnames, and UserIDs/RINs from Legacy to the attached JPEG’s IPTC fields. This will add IPTC data directly to each .jpg image Some references re IPTC http://www.rideau-info.com/genealogy/digital/label.html http://genealogy.about.com/b/2007/11/12/labeling-photos-with-iptc.htm Cheers :) Margaret PS.
