Michele, This could be the preverbal double edged sword. If the program eliminates this as a dup and one of the dates is in error, then you would not see the error.

Re: [LegacyUG] Image captions using misspelled surnames
Thanks everyone! My main concern was with identifying images and I do agree that adding the date of birth, or even just the birth year, would resolve my confusion and allow for quick identification. I've gone back into my Legacy Picture directory and changed the spelling of names to adhere to the name used on birth records plus I added a birth year. Surprising only two family members with the same name were born on the same year. Fortunately, the images weren't linked to individuals, so my next step is linking and sourcing images to individuals. As for the various spellings *not* being actual AKAs. Absolutely. Jenny Benson said, I record names as they appear, but I don't record all the variations as AKAs, preferring to use AKA only for where someone actually used 2 (or more) different names. I agree, and I think following this rule will keep my data simplified in a way that it will be understood by other family members later. Since most of my ancestors have migrated to the US, the majority of their names have been Americanized. One of my uncles, for example, whose birth name is Cateno, was called Gus. Cateno goes on his individual record, Gus goes in his AKA. The 1920 US Census has him listed as August, but since we (the family) don't know him this way, I did a Census Event and did not record August as an AKA. Again, thanks everyone for your input.

re: [LegacyUG] error 3163
Bob, There are several glitches that may popup in the family file from time to time. They can often be fixed by doing a Check and Repair of the family file. First, backup your family file, or if it won't backup, then make a copy of it.. Next, please click on File on the menu bar and select File Maintenance Check/Repair and proceed with the repair. If any error messages occur during the Check/Repair process, click No in the error message box so that the repair steps can finish. Do Check/Repair twice if errors are found. If the program is still gives you errors, export your records into a GEDCOM file and then import the GEDCOM back into a new family file in Legacy. Use the new family file. Please let us know how it goes.

[LegacyUG] Finding Dups
Surely Legacy is finding possible duplicates. It is up to you to determine whether or not these are the same people. If one date was in error (have you never written 1856 instead of 1956?) then it would be good to get this shown. If they aren't the same person then mark them as such and they will go away.

[LegacyUG] a surfeit of husbands
I recently ran a potential problems report and found the following situation: A woman had married and had children. The 1871 census shows her as a widow with several children, including a 3-month-old daughter. Her husband had died in 1868. The 1881 census shows her being remarried with two more children born after 1871 but before her new marriage and with her previous married surname. So, these may have been adopted, they may be fathered by her new husband before the marriage, or she may have had another, as yet undocumented, relationship (or two). The three children born between the death of husband 1 and the marriage to husband 2 were linked to husband 1 and showed up as potential problems. I've unlinked the three children from their parents and linked them to the mother, but now they each have an unknown father. This poor woman shows up as having 5 husbands, three unknowns and two with names. Is there any way to consolidate the 3 unknown spouses into one, without actually creating someone called Unknown?

Re: [LegacyUG] a surfeit of husbands
Tony, But from what you say Legacy isn't showing them correctly? It is merely confirming what you know, or rather don't, that the father is unknown. I have said many time on this list, the last time being this week, that by right clicking on the unknown father(s) and deleting they will be deleted from Family View etc. They will still appear in the Marriage List, but other than you who will read that list?

Re: [LegacyUG] a surfeit of husbands
Tony, I should have mentioned, you could, of course, buy the birth certificates to see if a father is named on them. Also you may find references to the father in parish records (birth/baptism), and in court records if an application for maintenance was made.

Re: [LegacyUG] a surfeit of husbands
Maybe all 3 were fathered by different men. It can happen. In the meantime, you can merge the 3 unknowns into 1 unknown using the Merge function. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 8/8/2012 5:24 PM, Tony Rolfe wrote: I recently ran a potential problems report and found the following situation: A woman had married and had children.

[LegacyUG] a surfeit of husbands
Thanks for the advice so far. I can't merge these people because they don't appear in the name list. and I can't delete them as they are just dummy entries (RIN 0). When I right-click them I just get Add the husband or Edit the marriage. Legacy is displaying them as unknown, which is correct, but is displaying them as different which we don't know is correct. I was just hoping to simplify the Pedigree view display and have just one unknown rather than 3, but it doesn't appear to work that way 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).

[LegacyUG] Legacy Dropbox Syncback
Hi, I currently have all my legacy files, both multimedia data, in my dropbox. I have also just become aware that if I don't access my dropbox for 90 days, the dropbox people may delete my files from their server. If I then use my pc, dropbox will automatically delete the files on my pc too. This has all been verified to me by the dropbox help people. SCARY !! So I still like the idea of dropbox but what I'm thinking of doing now is moving all my legacy files back into a normal docs folder and then using syncback to keep an updated copy of those files in my dropbox. That way even if they got deleted from the dropbox folder, I still have my totally up to date files. Does anyone see any problems with this? I couldn't imagine it will muck up legacy in any way. ALSO before anyone brings it up, yes it is highly possible I could be away from my pc for extended times. I Have an ongoing battle with recurring brain tumours and last time I was in hospital for 7 months learning to use my limbs again. As I say, I don't forsee any problems but I fugure it's safer to throw it out there to see what other legacy users think.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Dropbox Syncback
Yes, I definitely wouldn't keep anything in Dropbox that you could lose for whatever reason. I used to and changed my mind about it. Now I only keep my shared folders and portable apps there. But I also backup My Dropbox to my external hard-drives. Dropbox, by the way, is a more complicated way of using Legacy than say, SugarSync, where you don't have to move your files from their original locations. I don't know if they have also have a time limit for keeping your files, but if they do, your originals are still on your pc where you first installed them. SugarSync is only a backup and may be also there for the convenience of syncing to another computer. In any case, if your files disappeared from SugarSync they'd still be on both your computers. I don't use cloud services for backup. For that I use external hard-drives. As convenient as the cloud can be I don't like the thought of someone else having access to and control over my personal files. So I only use them for collaboration as needed. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 8/8/2012 7:32 PM, Ian GARDENER wrote: Hi, I currently have all my legacy files, both multimedia data, in my dropbox.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Dropbox Syncback
I also do periodic backups to an external hard drive in addition to using dropbox as my primary folder for saving my genealogy files, including Legacy; it's always best to use multiple back up types for something as important as genealogy research -- it would be difficult, if not impossible, to reproduce so it is definitely one of my very most valuable things in my home.
