RE: [LegacyUG] one source entry - many entries
Michele, you said “Each deed will be in different books on different page numbers. It would be pretty messy to try and record a single citation for 20 different deeds.” What if there are 20 deeds abstracted in the same work for the same ancestor? The only thing that will differ is the page number in the source citation and maybe the deed books – 10 of them may be in Deed Book A and the other 10 in Deed Book B. That said, I do see your point about “one event – one source.” My problem is that I find it rather monotonous to list events thusly: James was listed on a deed on 20 Dec 1760 in Granville Co., NC. He was listed on a deed on 30 Jan 1761 in Granville Co., NC. James was listed on a deed on 3 Feb 1761 in Granville Co., NC. I appreciate that Legacy defines events based on individual specific records for an individual. That said, in the Register Reports I generated when using PAF I entered the deed abstracts or court records or other sources into a “Notes” section which fell after the individual’s primary family data (the record of his/her marriage and children). I’m not sure whether I’d prefer that level of detail within the report or in the end/footnote, with the event giving a summation only.

Re: [LegacyUG] Details text showing up in Footnote citation.
This thread seems to have got complicated while I've been offline overnight. Whether or not Master Source Comments are included in a Gedcom should be controlled by whether you export the Source just with the print options OR choose to override these and export everything. I don't know whether this works with respect to Master Source Comments as I don't use them much and I don't use Gedcoms much. Brian, If you put comments into Legacy that you want to be always Private, put them in Privacy brackets and don't override these when reporting or exporting. When you are on the Assigned Sources screen and highlight a Source, you see a preview on the Output tab at the bottom. This has two radio buttons on it - Show Entire Source and Show Source Using Print Options. Are these bug free? It seems to depend on the actual source and which combinations of checkboxes have been used. These same options are there when you look at the Master Source list. I don't think they are working properly there. Bob, If you don't want the detailed source comments included in a source citation, you have to untick that checkbox on the screen where you added the comment. I don't know why you'd go back and recheck it even if you think there is a bug with the preview IF you don't actually want the text included. Yes you should upgrade. There is no point troubleshooting a problem in a previous version. I nearly always download the file and install rather than using the Home Tab. A corrupt download won't usually run. With earlier versions of Legacy, the download from the Home tab was selective and only downloaded the files in the update that needed to be updated on your computer. With Legacy 8, the whole update is downloaded and the selection process of which files in the install file to use and which to skip is made on your computer. So you're not saving download time by using the Home Tab - you're just saving yourself from the install process as where the file is and running it is all handled in the background. If you download the file from the website, you have a file you can use to update or install Legacy on another computer. Cathy Genealogy Bob mailto:bobstr...@gmail.com Monday, 30 March 2015 6:46 AM Denise - I am talking about the OUTPUT tab of the Master, not the Comments. The Footnote appends the Text/Comments from the Details, not from the Master. And this seems to confirm what Brian has commented on: Using the same install master file I had recently downloaded, I installed Legacy 8, 467, on a remote system, XP Pro. I copied my bad family file, and my Samples file to the other system, and put them in a separate folder. I started Legacy, entered my ID code to get the Deluxe features. I changed no paths, and accepted the defaults, and opened the newly installed Samples file, not the one I copied there. Got the same problem, Asa Brown's Assigned Source Footnotes include the Details Text, right out of the box!. I did not even bother to try the two files I had copied there. This reminded me, that I had recently upgraded to 467, maybe that is the problem? I downloaded the install master, did not do an auto upgrade. Perhaps the install file I am using was corrupted? But maybe not. If Brian is right, this is a known problem, visually bad, but prints correctly. I see that 473 is available, maybe fixed? So, Cathy, should I try to upgrade to 473? Hate to make changes while trying to troubleshoot a problem, but Brian sounds like the cause is known. How will I upgrade without needing to download an install file, cannot see that option? It was here at one time, I am just lost at the moment. Found it! Tab for Legacy Home, on the right, click on Updates (found it, but did not do it yet, want to get your opinion first). === On 3/29/2015 5:41 PM, Denise Moss-Fritch wrote: 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://support.legacyfamilytree.com Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Re: [LegacyUG] Individual's Information Screen
Well - I disagree that baptism vs christening are not important. Nor are they the same in many religions. The following is over simplifying a complex issue: Church of England, Presbyterians other religions = christen infants - the ceremony recognizes the baby into the body of church members, who in turn - promise to help guide the infant thru childhood. This involves sponsors godparents (not so much in today's world) If your family joins that church at a later age - say - you are a young teenager - you would then be baptized as Presbyterian so forth. Baptists other religions - baptize when a young person is old enough to accept the teachings of Christ. This would of a young teenager - not an infant. Of course - you can join either group at any age - you would be baptized into the church. ** Example = My 6th great grandmother - Mary Cantrell was baptized 6 Oct 1744 - Welsh Tract Baptist Meeting, Pencader Hundred, New Castle Co., Del. Being Baptist - therefore she is NOT an infant - but a young teenager enables us to place a birth year about 1728 or so. Now - if you combine Christening Bapti as the same - you would give my Mary a birth of cir 1744.

RE: [LegacyUG] one source entry - many entries
Barton, The Descendant Book Report is where you will find the Register and Modified Register (NGSQ) formats. The way you have entered your land transaction is different than I have ever seen. You have entered a single event for all of the land around a particular body of water and combined all off the deeds into a single citation? This is a bit messy. Just my personal opinion but each land transaction needs to be its own event with its own citation. You can easily mention other related transactions in the notes such as, Jacob and his brother's John and Joseph bought adjoining pieces of land on Little Black Creek. As far as source text/comments and detail text/comments printing in the footnotes you need to have these selected to print. You will find this in two places. You can do it singly on the Master Source screen for that source (right under where you entered the text/comments) and on the detail screen (right under the text/comments) and you can do it globally in Option 7.2. If you make a change there you need to click the Apply button over on the right.

Re: [LegacyUG] Individual's Information Screen
As a member of the Anglican faith, Canadian equivalent of the Church of England, I can tell you that we baptize infants we do not christen them. It is the sacrament wherein they are made followers of Christ. There is no naming element although the priest does ask the parents/sponsors the name of the child so it can be used as their name in the baptism. There is a variation of the baptism service for those who were not baptized as an infant where the promises are made by the child rather than the sponsors but both are baptisms. We recognize baptism by any Christian sect as a valid sacrament. Do you know of any religions which have both a christening and a baptism?

Being Baptist - therefore she is NOT an infant - but a young teenager enables us to place a birth year about 1728 or so. Now - if you combine Christening Bapti as the same - you would give my Mary a birth of cir 1744.

RE: [LegacyUG] Details text showing up in Footnote citation.
I think I know what he is talking about and I believe that I can confirm what he says is true. However, what he is seeing is only what I would call a “preview” of a complete all-inclusive footnote which includes all comments regardless of what the setting on the Comments tab of a Master Source Definition to “include on Reports” is checked or not. But the safe thing is that while these comments always appear on that “preview”, the checkbox to include or not to include will work properly when a report is generated. I first noticed this inclusion of all comments on the “preview” several versions ago in v8 and may have been there all along since then introduction of v8. I considered it a very minor bug and have been surprised that nobody else has mentioned it up till now. Until other more pressing and important bugs have been swatted, I may have brought it up at a later time. Here is a more detailed explanation: I have an assigned source to an event that is from someone’s family file submission on Ancestry.com. In the Comments tab of that Master Source, I have the submitting person’s name, home address, phone number, and email address as well as some other info about that person, their relationship to me, whether I like them or not…you get the picture. Private stuff. Of course, I don’t want that private information printed out on any report so on the Comments tab of the Master Source Definition is where I have that private information. At the bottom of that Comments tab is that option to “Include on Reports..” I have that checkbox empty. If I Save that Master Source Definition and then look at the Assigned Sources of events for the person in the family file and select that Master Source, down at the bottom of that window, if the “Output” tab is selected, will appear what I am calling a “preview” of the Footnote/Citation and also the Subsequent Citation. The bad news is that my info from the Comments section that I wanted to keep private appears in each citation. Going back to the Master Source and placing a checkmark in the Include on Reports or removing the checkmark will have no effect on the appearance of the info on the Comments tab. But once again, I have learned to call this a “preview” of what an all-inclusive footnote might look like. And once again, if that checkmark is removed to not Include on Reports, then that private info is not included on any reports generated. I think it’s an oversight by the programmers and unless you actually check the output in the report, you’ll get paranoid when you view these Footnotes on the Assigned Sources window. Of course, the programmers may want to argue that point and say that they did it that way intentionally just so everyone could see a complete all-inclusive footnote. You say tomato and I say tomato (wait, that doesn’t work on written work.) Now for the really bad news that nobody has yet caught. I seems this info on the Comment tab of a Master Source is always included on a GEDCOM submission which kind of negates my idea of keeping it private.

[LegacyUG] Gedcom import dropping Child Sealings
Hello Legacyusergroup, When examining a GEDCOM import into Legacy from TMG, I discovered that about 90% of the Sealing to Parent entries are missing. Instead, the same exact text Seal to Parents: @I8851@ appears in the notes for all of the persons whose sealing to parents information is missing. That text doesn't make much sense, and there is nothing special about individual #8851. I examined the gedcom file and found nothing wrong with it. The information is all there in the proper format, and there is no difference between the ones that imported and the ones that didn't. It seems to be random. The number of SLGC tags in the TMG file was 3612, but the number successfully imported by Legacy was only about three or four hundred. The GEDCOM import was without errors, and only a few items in the unrecognized lines log, mostly name dates. Also, when sharing data with FamilySearch, If I click on Add Ordinances to Legacy, all the ordinances are copied over - but only about 30% of the time - the rest of the time, the Sealing to Parents information has to be copied manually. This is with full valid date and temple data in FamilySearch. -- Best regards, Stuart mailto:stuarta...@gmail.com 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://support.legacyfamilytree.com Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Re: [LegacyUG] Details text showing up in Footnote citation.
Denise - I am talking about the OUTPUT tab of the Master, not the Comments. The Footnote appends the Text/Comments from the Details, not from the Master. And this seems to confirm what Brian has commented on: Using the same install master file I had recently downloaded, I installed Legacy 8, 467, on a remote system, XP Pro. I copied my bad family file, and my Samples file to the other system, and put them in a separate folder. I started Legacy, entered my ID code to get the Deluxe features. I changed no paths, and accepted the defaults, and opened the newly installed Samples file, not the one I copied there. Got the same problem, Asa Brown's Assigned Source Footnotes include the Details Text, right out of the box!. I did not even bother to try the two files I had copied there. This reminded me, that I had recently upgraded to 467, maybe that is the problem? I downloaded the install master, did not do an auto upgrade. Perhaps the install file I am using was corrupted? But maybe not. If Brian is right, this is a known problem, visually bad, but prints correctly. I see that 473 is available, maybe fixed? So, Cathy, should I try to upgrade to 473? Hate to make changes while trying to troubleshoot a problem, but Brian sounds like the cause is known. How will I upgrade without needing to download an install file, cannot see that option? It was here at one time, I am just lost at the moment. Found it!
