In all other records she is listed under the surname of the man my ancestor married. There were two other children in the same situation, but without birth records that I have found, just the names, each with different last names. Another researcher who has done a lot of work as this is her direct ancestor, has noted that there were no marriages for these childdren. I entered this first child under the spouse and noted unmarried. but the father still shows up under the spouse button. Is that how I should do it? As far as Legacy is concerned spouse means husband or partner or Person an individual had a one-night stand with. In reports you can change the wording to reflect the exact status if you want. You are correct to enter the child as if the parents were a married couple, but to check the This couple never married button. And when there is no birth record, but a last name different than the mother's, do I enter those two children under the marriage button with no name in the father's blank? I'm assuming you mean there was a child with surname A, 2 children with surname B and then a husband with surname C. You will need to give the woman 2 unmarried partners with their respective children and then a husband. Later when all the children are listed in census and other records by the last name of the man my ancestor finally married, is it likely or unlikely there was a formal adoption (this is in the late 1800s) or they just informally took that name? Should that be noted under notes or in the notes in the census record? For a start, it might depend on what country we are talking about. I don't know about the US or elsewhere, but here in the UK (certainly England Wales, Scotland might be different) there was no formal adoption until the 1920s. On the Census a step-child might well be given the stepfather's name but there were no legal niceties involved. When writing up the Source for these entries you should enter the children's names exactly as they appear in that Source. So you might have a birth record showing Joe Bloggs and then a Census record showing Joe Doe. You may wish also to enter in Notes that the children apparently took the name of their stepfather. -- Jenny M Benson 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).

Then I will print a Report (probably Descendant Narrative) just showing the individuals and their Notes, not including any Events/Facts or Sources. If necessary, I can take the Report into a wordprocessor and amend it, but I don't think that will be necessary. Is there a software program that I can enter my Legacy information into, that works well with Legacy, and puts the reports into a more informal, book type of output? A story or history kind of book? There may be, but I don't know of one.

[LegacyUG] missing tags

Re: [LegacyUG] missing tags
Yes, it should be a space - I think that's one problem solved and I've changed the name, removing the space and saved it over the new name so now, hopefully, it is one again. I just hope that any changes done since last week are in the database. Doesn't explain why tags aren't being shown. I've tried again to 'show' tags but they just aren't there. I have ascertained that the correct ones in use are highlighted to be shown. I cleared all tags and re-tagged the descendants of one person using no.1 but it just doesn't appear on the family view page. Any ideas, please?

Re: [LegacyUG] Trying to enter information that will result in readable reports
Peggy, I use the Descendants Book Report (a.k.a. Modified Register Report) to do this and have given printed reports to family members which they can easily read. They seem to like it in this format. However, to make it easy for them to read, I have placed all the information that I have researched into Events with detailed information in the notes field of the event. All events and information has been sourced and when I print the Descendant Report, I place the sources as end notes. By entering data as events, it also makes it easy to review my data in a timeline. And, of course, I include a name index at the end of the printed report so that family members can easily find anyone of interest to them. Have you looked at the Descendants Book report? If not, take a look.

[LegacyUG] Removing children listed twice
My father died when I was a child and when my mother re-married, my sister (but not my brothers) were adopted by our stepfather. I have this link on the family tree but I cannot find any way of omitting my sister and myself from reports. I tried setting us to private under the second marriage but Legacy made us private everywhere. I think it might be easier to delete us from the second marriage altogether and simply mention the fact that we were adopted (with the subsequent name change) in the general notes. However, I am reluctant to delete myself from the second marriage in case I disappear altogether. Should this be an 'unlink' situation? Any advice welcome. P.S.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children of unmarried couple?
For a start, it might depend on what country we are talking about. This is Ontario in the late 1800s. Sorry I should have mentioned that. When writing up the Source for these entries you should enter the children's names exactly as they appear in that Source. So you might have a birth record showing Joe Bloggs and then a Census record showing Joe Doe. You may wish also to enter in Notes that the children apparently took the name of their stepfather. -- Jenny M Benson Thank you for the response, Jenny, and thanks to the others. For some reason I'm not getting the emails in my email box so I went to the archives to see if there were any answers. (When I cut and pasted this to send a response, it seems the word wrap feature of Yahoo mail isn't working. I hope it looks right in yours.) Now I need to go back and see if there are answers to my other questions! Peggy Re: [LegacyUG] Children of unmarried couple?

In all other records she is listed under the surname of the man my ancestor married. There were two other children in the same situation, but without birth records that I have found, just the names, each with different last names. Another researcher who has done a lot of work as this is her direct ancestor, has noted that there were no marriages for these childdren. I entered this first child under the spouse and noted unmarried. but the father still shows up under the spouse button. Is that how I should do it? As far as Legacy is concerned spouse means husband or partner or Person an individual had a one-night stand with. In reports you can change the wording to reflect the exact status if you want. You are correct to enter the child as if the parents were a married couple, but to check the This couple never married button. And when there is no birth record, but a last name different than the mother's, do I enter those two children under the marriage button with no name in the father's blank? I'm assuming you mean there was a child with surname A, 2 children with surname B and then a husband with surname C. You will need to give the woman 2 unmarried partners with their respective children and then a husband. Later when all the children are listed in census and other records by the last name of the man my ancestor finally married, is it likely or unlikely there was a formal adoption (this is in the late 1800s) or they just informally took that name? Should that be noted under notes or in the notes in the census record? For a start, it might depend on what country we are talking about. I don't know about the US or elsewhere, but here in the UK (certainly England Wales, Scotland might be different) there was no formal adoption until the 1920s. On the Census a step-child might well be given the stepfather's name but there were no legal niceties involved.

Re: [LegacyUG] Removing children listed twice

I have this link on the family tree but I cannot find any way of omitting my sister and myself from reports. I tried setting us to private under the second marriage but Legacy made us private everywhere. I think it might be easier to delete us from the second marriage altogether and simply mention the fact that we were adopted (with the subsequent name change) in the general notes. However, I am reluctant to delete myself from the second marriage in case I disappear altogether. Should this be an 'unlink' situation? As far as I know there is no way to show children as both the product of one marriage (or relationship) AND as the (adopted) product of another marriage unless you enter them into the database twice. Step-children can be shown as such under the marriage of their parent and step-parent and will not appear as descendants of the step-parent. An adopted child is generally considered to be as much part of the family as a blood-related child, so most people would want the to appear in Reports, albeit with the child status set to Adopted. Your only choice would seem to be to unlink yourself and your sister from your mother step-father's marriage and only show yourselves, if at all, as step-children. -- Jenny M Benson 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] duplicated emails
I'm sure there is no reason for you to just live with it. There has to be an explanation. But how did you try to stop it? You did not elaborate. There could possibly be something in your settings like send yourself a cc of your messages. But if it is nothing like that, I think I would UN-SUBSCRIBE to the Legacy lists and re-subscribe all over again. But watch for that error that often occurs when you try to click on the URL in Legacy's welcoming email. If there is that pesky embedded space, you might have to copy and paste their entire address into your browser to fully complete your membership in the lists.

However, to make it easy for them to read, I have placed all the information that I have researched into Events with detailed information in the notes field of the event. All events and information has been sourced and when I print the Descendant Report, I place the sources as end notes.

Re: [LegacyUG] Trying to enter information that will result in readable reports
Lea-Anne, Firstly, let me say that I am just saying that this is the way in which I record data, and not a recommendation that anyone should change the way in which they work. I have not seen Geoff's webinar, but I know from the Sample File that I do not work the same way as Geoff. I should perhaps add that when deciding how I was going to store data my first consideration was how the data would look on the web, reports were a second consideration. These considerations led to me deciding not to have Census Events. There have been a number of previous discussions on LUG as to whether a census is an Event or a Source (please let's not debate it again - it's in the archives), and I do admit that I tend to come down on the side of it being a Source. Actually, I am mellowing as I get older, because at one time I would have said it was definitely only a Source :-). I do not record people who are not in any way related to my tree eg. servants etc. except where there is a special reason, eg. if a son marries the family's maid then I will put something in the Marriage Event . I am conscious that some will say I can easily miss connections this way, and I would not disagree, although I suspect that the number of times this happens is very low. If I wanted to I could always add them as a comment to the Source Detail - but I don't! My Residence Event is not a replacement for a Census Event, it is a record of where each person has lived and when; it can, therefore, include at birth, at marriage, at army registration, in fact whenever a new location crops up. Similarly I have Occupation Events where, again, I use the census as a Source. In fact if any data on the census can be used as a Source for any type of Event, then that is how I use it.

[LegacyUG] Version 7.5.0.149 - font issues
I'm aware that the update to the latest version has caused some problems, but I'm baffled with what's happened in my case. I updated to 7.5.0.149 very soon after it was released and have been happily using it ever since. The only issue was I couldn't set the fonts in the Descendant Book - no big deal. Now, just today, when I go to view the Descendent report, the fonts are all weird sizes and types. Why am I getting this now? Is it related to what others are experiencing with the latest update? Is there a work-around?

Re: [LegacyUG] Trying to enter information that will result in readable reports
Well here I go again, trying to cut and paste to reply. I did re-subscribe and just sent back the confirmation email, so hopefully I'll start getting mail again. Actually, I won't cut and paste. I was interested in Ron's discussion of the census records. I guess from what he said, I could do a search on the topic, but that might be more confusing. I have been entering them as an event (for couples, if there is a family, or one person, if single). I put the whole text from the image into the citation and after than use just the census source and citation for other events. I do want to see the whole family printed out once. But I'm so new to all this I'm not sure how it's going to look when put into a report. For what I have in mind, for family wanting this in story form, the whole family together (in a census) once, might be interesting. In my notes when I put the book together, I can enter my thoughts and observations on the family changes and the history of the area. I don't know where to do that so it prints out in Legacy. If an ancestor was a farmer, I doubt it would be interesting to have it print out several times because it is found in several census lists. So I'm not sure how to deal with occupations. For myself, I want them all there. For the book I want what will hold attention of a non historian person. I've just begun to understand how important the places event is for timelines. And I haven't used it. So will have to go back and add them. I know I need to test the report features and see how it prints out now. Maybe that will give me ideas. The last time I put a book together for family members, I pretty much took the information and rewrote it, adding the photos I had. The trouble with that is that, after more research, a lot changes and somehow has to be incorporated into a new book, which, hopefully won't have to be completely rewritten! The never ending story. There are so many ways to do things, and I've just started. And I'm getting on in years so my time is limited. Back to work!

That's why I do not enter it the way Geoff recommends. When trying something new, I enter the data the new way and then run several different reports to see how it looks.

Wed, 22 Feb 2012 06:46:38 -0800 Cathy-0 Peggy, I use the Descendants Book Report (a.k.a. Modified Register Report) to do this and have given printed reports to family members which they can easily read. They seem to like it in this format. However, to make it easy for them to read, I have placed all the information that I have researched into Events with detailed information in the notes field of the event. All events and information has been sourced and when I print the Descendant Report, I place the sources as end notes. By entering data as events, it also makes it easy to review my data in a timeline. And, of course, I include a name index at the end of the printed report so that family members can easily find anyone of interest to them. Have you looked at the Descendants Book report? If not, take a look. Cathy Cathy, I am so busy trying to enter information into Legacy, found on ancestry.com (before my six months subscription runs out), plus making extra notes and saving files, that I haven't had time to begin to explore the features of Legacy.

If I put the information in the census notes (under the detail), it will be more difficult to be sure it doesn't end up being repetitous. But it is often in the census that I find the information I want to note. And Legacy reports will need to be edited for the family members I am concerned about. Is there a software program that I can enter my Legacy information into, that works well with Legacy, and puts the reports into a more informal, book type of output? A story or history kind of book?

Re: [LegacyUG] Trying to enter information that will result in readable reports
Lea-Anne, I do use census events, but I don't have the transcription of the entire household in every event. I use a more narrative style and include just that person's information. For the couple, I add the event to the marriage. In fact, if I have the image, I don't have the transcription anywhere, because I can just pull up the image if I need to see something and neither the image nor transcriptions add anything to the reports that I use. Even on those census sources where I have just transcriptions (have yet to obtain an image and see what was entered for myself), I have the transcription in the source, but I don't print it as part of the citation (entered in the Text field without checking that box). Hope this made sense. But as Ron has said not a recommendation - just describing how I do it in case it can be helpful to you.

I think I will experient with what has been suggested. I realise there is no right or wrong way, but how it looks in the report is an important part for me. I think I will try putting in an event whether I call in Event or Residence not sure yet with an condensed description of the family in the census eg John Smith was living with his wife and children (perhaps name each but keep it short). Then source the census with the full details in the text field and see how that looks for the reports. Whether I print it as part of the citation I will decide after I see how it looks but at least this way it will only be once at the end of the report and not repeated all through the report.

Re: [LegacyUG] Trying to enter information that will result in readable reports
I think Ron is in the UK and it is about 5 in the morning there, I think, so you can probably expect him to answer later. But I almost find it hysterical that a census is considered an event in someone's life, despite the fact that many professionals advocate for that. That's sort of like saying a newspaper is an event in someone's life because they might be mentioned in the newspaper, or an obituary is an event in someone's life because, certainly, they are mentioned in the obituary. Clearly, they are sources, not events, and I prefer to use my Merriam-Webster roots to provide the correct definition. LOL! But the other side is, that most users will definitely not want to wade through lots of information about their ancestors that most of us genealogists might even have some difficulty deciphering. They want a brief synopsis that tells them the story and most of them, even me, detest wading through endless, not needed, information. So, keep it simple, comes to mind, but I realize most of the ones who disagree on this issue are very smart people, just mis-informed about the dictionary definitions on this subject.

Sorry, I meant to say ...better by treating a census as a source, rather than as an event...

But I almost find it hysterical that a census is considered an event in someone's life, despite the fact that many professionals advocate for that. That's sort of like saying a newspaper is an event in someone's life because they might be mentioned in the newspaper, or an obituary is an event in someone's life because, certainly, they are mentioned in the obituary. Clearly, they are sources, not events, and I prefer to use my Merriam-Webster roots to provide the correct definition. LOL! But the other side is, that most users will definitely not want to wade through lots of information about their ancestors that most of us genealogists might even have some difficulty deciphering.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Word for descendant report
Paula and Elizabeth, You don't have to compromise on the export, you can still keep Source Writer sources. 1. DO NOT export as GEDCOM. 2. Export as a Legacy file, from the file menu:FileExport toLegacy File You can use a focus group or tag the subset you want. 3. Export it. 4. It will ask if you want to open it.

Re: showing only some descendents I have seen on this list people recommending you export the subset you need to GEDCOM, then import into a new file, then unlink the branches you don't need in the particular report. (I'm paraphrasing.) Maybe that sort of approach could work for you. ON THE OTHER HAND: There are known issues with GEDCOM vs. Source Writer citations, so maybe it wouldn't work for you. --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams *From:* Elizabeth roobee...@gmail.com *To:* LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com *Sent:* Tue, February 21, 2012 8:38:14 AM *Subject:* Re: [LegacyUG] Using Word for descendant report Thanks for all the advice. My original reason for exporting to Word was for subsequent editing.

Re: [LegacyUG] Removing children listed twice
Jenny, You should NEVER enter the same person twice in the database. Imagine the difficulty of remembering to update each one when you find new data for them. The correct way to show a person as a child of more than one set of parents is to LINK the child to the two sets of parents. Once they are properly linked then you can identify the relationship to the father and relationship to the mother for each set of parents. Select the child that has both biological and adoptive or step parents Note which set of parents are currently shown Click on the parent icon below the individual The list of parents will appear If you know the other set of parents are already in the file click the Link to Existing Parents button The Marriage list will open and you can select the second set of parents.

I have this link on the family tree but I cannot find any way of omitting my sister and myself from reports. I tried setting us to private under the second marriage but Legacy made us private everywhere. I think it might be easier to delete us from the second marriage altogether and simply mention the fact that we were adopted (with the subsequent name change) in the general notes. However, I am reluctant to delete myself from the second marriage in case I disappear altogether. Should this be an 'unlink' situation? As far as I know there is no way to show children as both the product of one marriage (or relationship) AND as the (adopted) product of another marriage unless you enter them into the database twice. Step-children can be shown as such under the marriage of their parent and step-parent and will not appear as descendants of the step-parent. An adopted child is generally considered to be as much part of the family as a blood-related child, so most people would want the to appear in Reports, albeit with the child status set to Adopted. Your only choice would seem to be to unlink yourself and your sister from your mother step-father's marriage and only show yourselves, if at all, as step-children.
