Re: [LegacyUG] Familysearch download - error

[Darlene Dimitrie]

I did finally manage to update to 8.0.0.596 - what I didn't put in the 
other email is that I was trying to update and kept getting an error 
about an "access violation".
This time I went to the Legacy Home Tab and did the update from there, 
instead of having the LFS tell me I needed to update.  This did work.
Now the LFS seems to be working better.  I only got 725 people this time 
and it finished fairly quickly.  This looks accurate. I'm not sure why I 
got 30,000'ish.


Thank you Brian and Cathy for your help.  The latest update did the 
trick and I appreciate the link to the training for LFS.   I didn't 
realize how it worked when I went in a few weeks ago and I ended up 
using the chat support to have them guide me through fixing what I had 
done.  Boy, did I learn my lesson!  I didn't know that it worked in 
"collaborative" mode.  I assumed it worked like Ancestry where you work 
in your own little world and it doesn't affect other people's work.

Also, if you actually download, make sure you download to a new file.

You do need to keep Legacy up to date as FamilySearch often change 
things so Legacy has to change to maintain the link.

[LegacyUG] Lexington to Frankfurt KY Users

[Jill Baty]

Hi is there anyone between Lexington to Frankfurt KY who would like to meet to 
simply type in our Legacy records?  It is so tedious (but necessary) for us 
extraverts like me to sit at home typing for hours.  Maybe we could meet at a 
local library, bring records, type, chat, help each other, share findings, etc! 
 

Let me know.  I would be happy if one person takes me up on this!  Even if we 
met once a month, I'd be that much further along!

(I love just about everything about genealogy except the data entry haha- a 
very necessary evil!  Can I say that?  Legacy is the best, but...)

Best Regards,
Jill A Baty

Hi everyone,

The download stopped.  I tried it again a few days later and I got 
about 90 more people, but the same error and again the download stopped.


I wasn't sure if this was the right forum to ask about this, or I 
should be sending this in to Legacy?


This is the first time I've used the Familysearch interface. Maybe I'm 
just not familiar enough with FS, but when I looked at the tree there, 
I only saw maybe 20 people, but the download pulled down about 
30,000.  I was quite shocked.  I think I need to learn more about how 
to use Familysearch.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Sources vs

[Cathy Pinner]

Naomi,

One thing to think about is how you might use the Show List feature. If 
you are too much of a lumper, it's pretty useless - but the same goes if 
you are an extreme splitter. For some sources I'm a lumper and for other 
source types I'm a splitter - mainly because of how I might want to use 
Show List and then turn that list into a search list.

Different people deal with this in different ways.

A lot will depend on which sources apply to your data, and how
much
information you have from each source.

For example, if you have a very large number of families from
a small area,
you may want to make that small area (eg Putnam Country, Ohio)
a master
source, but if you have family scattered over a wider area,
you might want to
make the master source the 1920 US Census, and put Putnam
County into the
details.

My own preference is the latter, but I still make exceptions
for some things.

One reason for my preference is database architecture, which
is a bit
technical, but still worth considering.

Legacy is a relational database, and one of the rules of
relational database
is to avoid duplication. If you make Putnam County Ohio and
Monroe County
Michigan your master sources, then you have to enter the 1920
US Census
twice, and more if there are other counties. All those entries
take up space
on your disk.

There are 3,141 counties in the United States. If you had 2
people in each in
the 1920 Census, that would be 3141 Master Sources and 6282
detail sources.
If, however, you lump the entries for the 1920 Census into one
master source,
that's 3140 master source records.

But if your people are distributed over 5 counties, then 5
Master sources
might be better.
