[LegacyUG] Contact with Legacy Sales

[John Stewart]

On December 30 last I ordered and paid for a copy of The Official Unofficial 
Guide to Using Legacy Family Tree - PDF edition.

I have not received a password and so am unable to unlock the download.  I 
contacted Legacy Sales and received a ticket number and the promise of a 
timely reply.  Despite repeated emails including the ticket number it is 
now over a month and I have received no reply.

Any suggestions?

John

Re: [LegacyUG] Short Location Names in GEDCOM

[Ron Ferguson]

Terri,

Not as far as I am aware, you can only switch the locations on the screen
view. Yet another reason why I do not use commas for missing fields etc.

Is there a way to export the short location names when creating a GEDCOM? I
have quite a few long location names with placeholder commas. I really don't
want the extra commas to export.

Thanks,
Terri

As I use my census event to document the address also, by default I do have a 
married residence event (sort of embedded in the census even as it were!)

Re: [LegacyUG] Examples of marriage events?

[Scott Hall]

I'll add that, like some others, I use the Marriage Events to record
anything that related to the couple, rather than the individual.  For
example, I record the census under marriage when a couple appear together.

 mum and dad are in the photo with the child I would add this as an event
 for the child, not the family - however, if it was a group photo take at a
 picnic I would include it as a marriage (read 'family') event because it
 isn't specific to any one person.  If I find a census entry for one of the
 children on his / her own, they would get an individual event - but if the
 rest of the family was together at a different location that entry would
 still be a family / marriage event.  I have also changed the wording for
 reports to something like The following involved [couplenames] and / or
 their children.

 I'm a long time Legacy user but have never, ever added an Event in the
 Marriage Information section. I would like to know some examples of what
 could/should be added there? Maybe I'm adding some of my information to the
 individual when it actually should be an Event in the Marriage section. I
 don't know.
 I think I'm asking this because I started seeing discussions about some
 people adding the Census Event under the Marriage section (although I still
 need to wrap my head around that idea and why I should do it.)

[LegacyUG] Location quandaries

[sarlesinsight]

If I have a probable location, how do others input such a thing? Example:
(probable) , Warren County, North Carolina, USA?

Also, I have a single period at the head of my Master Location List and
cannot seem to get rid of it. When I try, I get a message saying that no
one is using the location.

I started out doing my own thing with inputting locations, and now wish to 
make it consistent with Geoff's recommendations as to town, county, state, 
and country. (Wonder about where to put township - in place of town?)

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to correct all those entries in
efficient fashion? Or must I do one at a time and finish sometime next year?

[LegacyUG] Call me stupid but

[Michele Lewis]

I am still trying to get the WWI draft registration citation correct.  I am
using the correct template now.  In the last detail box where you put
citing.  It still won't format correct because in Evidence Explained part
of that particular field is supposed to be in italics.  Of course Legacy
can't just italicize part of the field because it doesn't know which part so
it doesn't italicize any of it.  I will have to override that part.



However, my bigger problem is this.  Evidence explained wants the serial
number and the order number (and that is written in the instructions inside
the box in Legacy).  I am looking at a draft card (version A from the first
draft).  There are FOUR numbers written on this card.  Upper left corner
right next to Form 1 is the number 89 (there is no blank for this, it is
just written off to the side).  At the upper right corner it does have a
blank.  The blank is labeled No. and 6 is written there.  On the back the
number 23-2-24-A is stamped that the top and 268 is stamped at the bottom.
I haven't a clue which is the serial number, which is the order number and
what the other two numbers represent.



The citation also calls for the Draft Board number but I don't see that at
all.  It has

Precinct - Purvis

City or County - Lamar

State - Miss



Help?

RE: [LegacyUG] Location quandaries

[Michele Lewis]

Jane,

1) I explain it in the notes.  If I am pretty sure that someone got married in 
Perry Co, MS (no marriage records before 1877 because the courthouse burned) 
then I will put

, Perry, Mississippi, United States

And then in the marriage notes I write something like...

Both John and Mary were living in Perry County for the 1840 census in the 
households of their parents.  In 1850 they were enumerated together in Perry 
County.  The Perry County courthouse burned in 1877 and there are no marriage 
records prior to that date survived.  The marriage records of the neighboring 
counties (Marion, Hancock, Jackson, Covington and Jones) were checked with 
negative results.  The neighboring counties of  Wayne and Greene also suffered 
complete records losses for this time period and could not be checked.   It is 
most likely they married in Perry County.  Their first child was born 04 Sep 
1848 which puts their marriage date about 1847.  John would have been 21 and 
Mary would have been 18 at the time of their marriage

2) In the master source list, hit options, then hit purge unused and that 
should get rid of your source that is nothing but a period.

3) If it is a true township then I put:

Purvis Township, Lamar, Mississippi, United States
(Purvis isn't really a township but I couldn't think of one right off the top 
of my head)

4) It takes a long time to correct entries :) :) :)

RE: [LegacyUG] Examples of marriage events?

[julia m]

Except that the joint residence under the marriage section *only* prints when 
Marriage Events is ticked in the report options. And to print an individual 
report, there is no place to turn on Print Marriage Events--so you would not 
see these residences or anything having to do with that individuals marriage.
I guess I can see the point of putting the joint residence but it sure would be 
nice if it printed, even in an individual report.

record in the database, then you can use OptionsPurge Unused to remove all of 
them at once or use OptionsDelete to remove just the one that is highlighted.  
Either method should work to get rid of the location you mentioned.

2) Probably (not Probable) is a valid preposition. (I call them location 
modifiers like near, from, of, ...because many of them are not actually 
prepositions)  Read more about them in the help file Prepositions on 
Location.  I had to add Probably to my file.  Note also in the help file Sort 
Location List where the two check boxes at the bottom of the sort tool are 
documented.  They are very useful when viewing locations.

3) You might try the Geo-code button for fixing multiple locations.  That 
button will show at the top of the master locations list if you have checked 
the box Show Map then click Geo-code all un-resolved locations through Bing 
Maps.  Legacy has a glitch in how the Bing Maps are linked (I think I have 
reported it in the past but it is still now fixed.)  The Bing Maps do not show 
when you first click Show Map but if you go to the Family view tab and then 
click on the Mapping tool icon, it usually will show the map of locations 
found on that family group.  Then look at the master location list again and 
the map will show.  I wish that there were a Geo-code all un-resolved locations 
through the Geo database.  A location that has been retrieved from Bing Maps 
will show V in the L column and if retrieved from the geo database will show 
an L.  If you lookup a location in the geo database that already has V, the 
program will not replace the V
 with an L although it does get the rest of the fields from the geo database.  
If you lookup a location in Bing Maps that already has L, the program does 
replace the L with a V.  I wish it were consistent.  Also, I'm not certain if 
the program considers an L location as already resolved when it tries to 
Geo-code all un-resolved locations.  At one time, I had thousands of locations 
verfied with the geo database but now very few of them show L and most of 
them show V.  It would be good if the one did not override the other without 
at least a question.

Good luck getting your locations cleaned up.

watched the relevant webinars.

I have been able to click on the nFS icon, Open Family Search to the
current person and then move information from my Legacy tree to nFS.  I
could probably have moved information from nFS to my Legacy tree had I
wanted to do so.  I have found duplicates and edited people on nFS.

All this with the Integrate with Family Search box on the

 The programmer changed
the way the country is returned when you use the Geo Location

This statement would imply that a change is made whenever you invoke the Geo

Re: [LegacyUG] Location quandaries

[Tessa]

Also keep in mind that if you have a few entries that include
misspellings or jumbled info you can combine them to be the correct
one (huge time-saver). I went through this process of standardizing my
locations, did not really take that long because I worked in the
master list - saw who was in any location and that helped me with the
combinations. Also got rid of all locations not in use, made sure the
long form and the short form were to my liking (I use USA and will
continue to do so). Now that it is clean, once a month I take a quick
look through (scrolling) to clean up any little mistakes from the
previous month. I pretty much have it down now. No worries - much like
the master sources (which I also cleaned up) it was a project that I
worked on for a set amount of time each day - took a few weeks - and
now my database is pretty clean. Best of luck.

Julia, I may be the only one, but I enter Census and Residence events on the

actually should be an Event in the Marriage section. I don't know.
I think I'm asking this because I started seeing discussions about some people

Anything related to the marriage and/or couple. Honeymoon would be a good one

pages.

Also, you can use the Marriage Events to record Marriage Banns, license, notice,
pre-nups or other contract, residences of the couple, alt. marriage dates or
locations (when you find a conflict - don't forget to create a To-Do to search
for the correct info)

You could also include any separation information if the marriage fails -

Except that the joint residence under the marriage section *only* prints when
Marriage Events is ticked in the report options. And to print an individual
report, there is no place to turn on Print Marriage Events--so you would not see
these residences or anything having to do with that individuals marriage.

I guess I can see the point of putting the joint residence but it sure would be
nice if it printed, even in an individual report.

Anyone have an opinion on Centennia, the mapping software for Europe?

I currently have AniMap and find it very useful for figuring out the history of
county borders in the U.S.  Is Centennia as detailed?

Here's my situation --
I want to record place names in accordance with the common standard, that is, 
at
the time the event occurred.  I have an entire family who came from Saint
Wendel, which is in the Saarland of Germany.  Tracking the history of this
region is not easy, as it has been, at various times in the last 200 years, 
part
of Lichtenstein, Prussia, Bavaria, the German Empire, Germany, an independent
state, and a protectorate of the United Nations.

If Centennia does nothing more than show me the change in borders of Germany,
that's probably not enough detail for me.  I'd like to see the evolution of the
Rheinland-Pflaz, and even, if possible Sankt Wendel Kreis, the district that
Sankt Wendel sits in.

So, particularly for users of AniMap, is Centennia worth its price?

Thanks,
Scott

Subject: [LegacyUG] Call me stupid but


I am still trying to get the WWI draft registration citation correct.  I am
using the correct template now.  In the last detail box where you put “citing…”
It still won’t format correct because in Evidence Explained part of that
particular field is supposed to be in italics.  Of course Legacy can’t just
italicize part of the field because it doesn’t know which part so it doesn’t
italicize any of it.  I will have to override that part.

However, my bigger problem is this.  Evidence explained wants the serial number
and the order number (and that is written in the instructions inside the box in
Legacy).  I am looking at a draft card (version A from the first draft).  There
are FOUR numbers written on this card.  Upper left corner right next to Form 1
is the number 89 (there is no blank for this, it is just written off to the
side).  At the upper right corner it does have a blank.  The blank is labeled
“No.” and 6 is written there.  On the back the number 23-2-24-A is stamped that
the top and 268 is stamped at the bottom.  I haven’t a clue which is the serial
number, which is the order number and what the other two numbers represent.


The citation also calls for the Draft Board number but I don’t see that at all.
It has
Precinct – Purvis
City or County – Lamar
State – Miss

Help?

You still have to enter the citation information details on your own, which means you have to be very careful to match the wording you've used previously.

Re: [LegacyUG] citing World War I draft registration cards

At least for now, could you Save the perfected citation as a source clipboard?
 Then when you have another WWI draft registration to cite, you could Load that
one and replace the name and various numbers in the same place in that Item of
Interest field?  As well as if you used the Text or Comment fields to help
perfect the citation... or even the over-rides... aren't those saved in the
Source Clipboard, too?  OR if you use this method, maybe make a citation that
has a more generic [NAME], [CARD NO.], [DATE SIGNED]... in the Item of
Interest field, and Save THAT one.  Ditto on the Text or Comment or Over-ride
boxes.  Then Load it as you need to make a new citation.

When the GeoDb gives you the location name in the Core and Core+

The clipboard itself can only hold one citation at a time. You can
however save up to 10 clipboards. Since you control those 10 saved
clipboards the WWI Draft clipboard with the perfect wording will only
be overwritten if you save another clipboard to replace it.

To save a clipboard open the clipboard and use the save button. To
recall a saved clipboard use the load button.

[LegacyUG] Notes formatting

[Neil Bell]

Many times when you GEDCOM in data from another genealogy program the
notes field will not end with the appropriate period (.).  Some programs
automatically add a period at the end of a note when generating output
reports.  Legacy does not do this.

One can go into the sentence definitions edit and add the period after
the notes field.  However for notes that do contain the period this
would result in two periods at the end of the sentence.

I don't _think_ it would be very difficult to have the option of adding
a period when one is not present in the original note.  Obviously I
could be wrong here about the difficulty of doing this but I do strongly
feel this is highly desirable.  Perhaps an optional feature to add a
period could be considered much like the existing option concerning
spaces following commas in all location fields.

The enforced period would make narrative reports so much easier to read!

Julia, I may be the only one, but I enter Census and Residence events on the 
Marriage.  You might want to check how that looks on the reports you use before 
you do that, though.  However, it just makes more sense to me than entering 
that information twice (on both spouses).
I also have 50th wedding anniversary celebration events on the appropriate 
Marriages. ;)

[Brian/Support]

In a discussion on our test list about the new census search/list tool
the programmer indicated he is looking at ways of searching for people
who already have census events. (I presume for the option to exclude
people who appear to have been found) In that he said I am working on
ways to see if the person has already been found in a particular census.
  This will include:
Event names (both individual and marriage)
Event dates
Sources

EXCELLENT!
Good question, Julia!  I hadn't quite gotten that far yet in using the tool!
Since the marriage facts and events show up in the individual's source window, I
would think the logic is there somewhere to be used to check for the census
event attached to the individual  their marriage(s).

You have a point - and I did think of that.  But they could pass the suggestions

new partner companies.  That is, they could satisfy customers' needs in ways
other than programming features into Legacy.

Legacy doesn't make AniMap, so why would you submit a suggestion to Legacy.

Anyone have an opinion on Centennia, the mapping software for Europe?

I currently have AniMap and find it very useful for figuring out the history of
county borders in the U.S.  Is Centennia as detailed?

Here's my situation --
I want to record place names in accordance with the common standard, that is, at
the time the event occurred.  I have an entire family who came from Saint
Wendel, which is in the Saarland of Germany.  Tracking the history of this
region is not easy, as it has  been, at various times in the last 200 years,
part of Lichtenstein, Prussia, Bavaria, the German Empire, Germany, an
independent state, and a protectorate of the United Nations.

If Centennia does nothing more than show me the change in borders of Germany,
that's probably not enough detail for me.  I'd like to see the evolution of the
Rheinland-Pflaz, and even, if possible Sankt Wendel Kreis, the district that
Sankt Wendel sits in.

So, particularly for users of AniMap, is Centennia worth its price?

Thanks,
Scott

Re: [LegacyUG] Examples of marriage events?

[Cathy-0]

One event that I add to the Marriage Information screen is any newspaper
article which mentions the wedding.  Some articles go into a great deal of
detail and describe who was in the wedding party, the names of the parents
of the wedding couple, and even what they wore on the day.  I've also
included newspaper articles here of the engagement party held prior to the
wedding.  Additionally, if there is a newspaper article about the couples'
subsequent divorce, again I add a newspaper event here containing the
article.

Here's the wording for my newspaper event on the Marriage Information
screen:

[CoupleFirstNames] were mentioned in an article in «i»[Desc]«/i» published
[onDate]  [inPlace]. [Sources][CR]  [Notes]

In the Description field, I place the name of the newspaper.

 I'm a long time Legacy user but have never, ever added an Event in the
 Marriage Information section. I would like to know some examples of what
 could/should be added there? Maybe I'm adding some of my information to
 the individual when it actually should be an Event in the Marriage
 section. I don't know.
 I think I'm asking this because I started seeing discussions about some
 people adding the Census Event under the Marriage section (although I
 still need to wrap my head around that idea and why I should do it.)

At first I thought the same thing, but maybe it looks at the Source Type and

Re: Re: [LegacyUG] WWI draft registration----was: Call me stupid but

[jsking71]

Michele -

After your original note on this subject last night I went back and notices
the same italics problem - and also had the same problems deciphering where
number was which.

However as far as the Draft Board - if you are using the Ancestry version
of the cards, the Draft board number is included in its sourcing material. 
Of course, I should tell you than on the one I was working on, it was 0
Draft Board, which also left me a bit perplexed.

 I am still trying to get the WWI draft registration citation correct. I
 am using the correct template now. In the last detail box where you put
 “citing…” It still won't format correct because in Evidence Explained
 part of that particular field is supposed to be in italics. Of course
 Legacy can't just italicize part of the field because it doesn't know
 which part so it doesn't italicize any of it. I will have to override
 that part. However, my bigger problem is this. Evidence explained wants
 the serial number and the order number (and that is
 written in the instructions inside the box in Legacy). I am looking at a 
 draft card (version A from the first draft). There are FOUR numbers
 written on this card. Upper left corner right next to Form 1 is the
 number 89 (there is no blank for this, it is just written off to the
 side). At the upper right corner it does have a blank. The blank is
 labeled “No.” and 6 is written there. On the back the number 23-2-24-A is
 stamped that the top and 268 is stamped at the bottom. I haven'ta clue
 which is the serial number, which is the order number and what the other 
 two numbers represent. The citation also calls for the Draft Board number

   One event that I add to the Marriage Information screen is any newspaper
   article which mentions the wedding. Some articles go into a great deal of
   detail and describe who was in the wedding party, the names of the parents
   of the wedding couple, and even what they wore on the day. I've also
   included newspaper articles here of the engagement party held prior to the
   wedding. Additionally, if there is a newspaper article about the couples'
   subsequent divorce, again I add a newspaper event here containing the
   article.
  
   Here's the wording for my newspaper event on the Marriage Information
   screen:
  
   [CoupleFirstNames] were mentioned in an article in «i»[Desc]«/i» published
   [onDate] [inPlace]. [Sources][CR] [Notes]
  
   In the Description field, I place the name of the newspaper.

Also, you can use the Marriage Events to record Marriage Banns, license,

Re: [LegacyUG] Location quandaries

[Kirsten Bowman]

Jane:

Ron's solution for the change to location prepositions would be a good
option but I'm not sure how it would be handled by GEDCOMs or at any sites
where you might post.  I sometimes use [probably] in the location field
itself such as Sweden [probably] when I need to include some sort of a
hint.  I also occasionally use it when I'm pretty sure of an approximate
location but don't yet have proof such as Wentworth County [probably],
Upper Canada.  Putting [probably] *after* the city, county, etc. causes it
to still sort with similar locations.

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Location quandaries

1) If a locaton in the master locations list is no longer connected with any
record in the database, then you can use OptionsPurge Unused to remove all
of them at once or use OptionsDelete to remove just the one that is
highlighted.  Either method should work to get rid of the location you
mentioned.

2) Probably (not Probable) is a valid preposition. (I call them location
modifiers like near, from, of, ...because many of them are not actually
prepositions)  Read more about them in the help file Prepositions on
Location.  I had to add Probably to my file.  Note also in the help file
Sort Location List where the two check boxes at the bottom of the sort
tool are documented.  They are very useful when viewing locations.

3) You might try the Geo-code button for fixing multiple locations.  That
button will show at the top of the master locations list if you have checked
the box Show Map then click Geo-code all un-resolved locations through
Bing Maps.  Legacy has a glitch in how the Bing Maps are linked (I think I
have reported it in the past but it is still now fixed.)  The Bing Maps do
not show when you first click Show Map but if you go to the Family view
tab and then click on the Mapping tool icon, it usually will show the map
of locations found on that family group.  Then look at the master location
list again and the map will show.  I wish that there were a Geo-code all
un-resolved locations through the Geo database.  A location that has been
retrieved from Bing Maps will show V in the L column and if retrieved from
the geo database will show an L.  If you lookup a location in the geo
database that already has V, the program will not replace the V
with an L although it does get the rest of the fields from the geo database.
If you lookup a location in Bing Maps that already has L, the program does
replace the L with a V.  I wish it were consistent.  Also, I'm not certain
if the program considers an L location as already resolved when it tries
to Geo-code all un-resolved locations.  At one time, I had thousands of
locations verfied with the geo database but now very few of them show L
and most of them show V.  It would be good if the one did not override the
other without at least a question.

Good luck getting your locations cleaned up.
