Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 9 right click delete wife's father or mother bug

[Mark]

Laurie, 

 

I can confirm something similar even in Beta 174 and will also submit a report. 
When I right-clicked delete wife’s mother, it did so correctly though.

 

 

Kind Regards,

Mark

Version 9 Bug:

 

I'm using version 9.0.0.169 and tried to right click delete a wife's father. 
Result was the husband was deleted instead. I've reproduced the problem with 
the sample database and found if you right click to delete the wife's mother it 
would delete the wife instead. 

 

I've submitted a bug report.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sources - MLA format available?

[Cathy Pinner]

The SourceWriter is based on Elizabeth Shown Mills sourcing models and 
she follows the Chicago Manual of Style with some tweaking for US 
National Archives citation style and by providing models for more 
sources used by genealogists.


So to follow other sourcing styles, using the Basic style would be 
simplest if you want to be strict down to the last comma.

Try this:

Re: [LegacyUG] Tip of the day

[JV Leavitt]

Thank you very much Michele. I remember using this years ago, but had 
since forgotten about it, and your tip prompted me to do as you 
suggested on my big Leavitt db file (186k records), using Find 
Duplicates - Special Duplicates Searches tab, and was surprised to see 
80 hits! I didn't want to go ahead with the merging without first 
looking at each pair to see what I would be getting myself into, so I 
asked myself how I was going to get to each pair in an efficient manner.


I decided to use the Merge window in a different way to begin, by 
stopping at the first match, and use an option to tag each pair with Tag 
1.  I would then skip to the next hit, and do the same, continuing in 
that way until all 80 pairs had been tagged.


At that point, I had only to open the Name List, and use the Search 
button at the bottom to show all Tag 1s. When I finished with one pair, 
I could use the Search Results List to get to the next un-merged pair. 
This process allowed me to finish the job in a very short time, even 
with going back and forth with FS FT to verify details and do cleanup 
work there, etc.


Have a great day!
Joseph Leavitt

TIP OF THE DAY (Legacy Staff) - "Find duplicates using only 
FamilySearch ID number"


(Legacy 8 and 9)

I ran this search for the first time today. I am not sure why I never 
tried it before. To get to it go to Tools > Merge Duplicates > Find 
Duplicates and then select the "Special Duplicates Searches" tab. The 
second option is the "Find duplicates using only FamilySearch ID number."



I ran the search and found I have 31 pairs of people sharing the same 
FSID. I can see how this could have happened when you consider the 
ability to auto match and FSIDs being merged. I printed a list of the 
31 pairs and went through them. I left the FSID on the correct person 
and deleted the FSID on the wrong person.


Some of the dups I could understand how a mistake could have been made 
but some of them were really off. I need to go back and look at the 
change logs to see who did the merge and then undo them.

 Thanks for the thought.  The surname is unusual; I have found three major

came to New England in the late 1700s from France and the third comes from 
eastern Europe in the 1900s.  I can find no link between the first and second

Hi Howland. If you have a somewhat unusual surname, it is sometimes better if 
you only search the surname. Then you can scroll the hits, and possibly see 
what might be a match for your subject. Just a thought.

The Find A Grave search algorithm only matches on EXACT equals. When I get No

modify the fields used in the initial attempt. I've found that Middle Names 
cause many of my misses. Also adding Location Details helps.

Re: [LegacyUG] Find A Grave Link

[CE WOOD]

The FAG search function leaves much to be desired. It needs an alternative 
index of surnames in which a search for a last name variant links to the same 
person. Who ever contributes the memorial can choose only one name variant - 
with or without the "de", "van", "von", etc., to say nothing of the many 
different ways a name was spelled over time and even in the same document!


The problem is with FAG, not Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] Date display in chart

[Michael Feldman]

Hi all,

In readying my extended-family tree for copying and distribution at an upcoming 
major reunion, I've decided it would be best to show birth years but refrain 
from showing full dates. Is there a way in Legacy to enter a full date into the 
database, but specify that only the year will be displayed in a chart? I haven't 
found anything like this in Legacy 8.


I'm thinking of privacy concerns here. Some of my relatives would be 
uncomfortable seeing their birth dates appear in a family tree chart, because 
one's birth date is becoming an increasingly important -- thus sensitive -- bit 
of identifying information. Health care providers, for example, ask patients to 
ID themselves with name and birth date (instead of social security number as in 
bygone days).


Thanks in advance for any advice!

Mike

Re: [LegacyUG] Find A Grave Link

[Rick Koelz]

Howland,
The Find A Grave search algorithm only matches on EXACT equals. When I get
No Records Found I click on the Refine Last Search option in the left
column and modify the fields used in the initial attempt. I've found that
Middle Names cause many of my misses. Also adding Location Details helps.

If you haven't done so watch Geoff's "Discover the New Legacy 9" webinar.
He shows several good hints for working with Find A Grave (
https://familytreewebinars.com/download.php?webinar_id=634).

Happy Searching,
Rick

Re: [LegacyUG] Find A Grave Link

Howland, 
Right now the match has to be exact.  There is a suggestion in the queue for
the programmers to consider to add a "fuzzy" search which will pick up close
matches.  It is common to have more information than Find A Grave does or
slightly different information.

The original message to the list is in the attachment.

This action is required because of the DMARC Reject/Quarantine Policy
imposed by some email providers. Users who want to send messages without
conversion to attachments should use a different email address for their
subscription.

Known providers for free email accounts whose emails do not require this
conversion include gmail.com and hotmail.com.  Many other email providers
will also work but you will have to give them a try.

Not exactly correct, Martha!

Look at the subject line - the OP was referring to My Heritage, not

[LegacyUG] Find A Grave Link

 Can someone explain how Legacy Family Tree links to Find A Grave top 
search for an individual's grave?  I searched for someone and had no hits.  But 
the search for his spouse was successful and I could link from her page to her 
spouse's page to find information and a Find A Grave  memorial number.
 I am using Legacy 9.0.0.169 and Windows 10.

TIP OF THE DAY (Legacy Staff) - "Find duplicates using only FamilySearch 
ID number"


(Legacy 8 and 9)


Brilliant tip - thanks, Michelle!

I hardly ever import anyone, preferring to have more control by entering 
everything by hand, so rarely have a need to even look at merging.  I 
found a couple of people who weren't duplicates and 3 who were!  Then 
did the "User ID" version and found I had quite a few people in that 
list - just due to careless typing in data entry, I think.

[LegacyUG] Tip of the Day

[Michele/Support]

TIP OF THE DAY (Legacy Staff) - Clearing the Quick Bookmarks

(all versions)


Quick Bookmarks are the three fields you see at the bottom of the Family
View. These are a shortcut to get to up to three specific people in your
file. I have one set to myself and then the other two are people I am
working on. To set a Quick Bookmark all you have to do is have the person
highlighted in the Family View and then right click in one of the fields.
Normally you don't have to clear these fields, you simply bookmark over them
(replace one name with another). However, if you want to clear the Quick
Bookmarks all you have to do is hold down the CTRL button when you right
click in the field and that will clear it.





By the way, to the left of the three Quick Bookmarks is a little book icon.
If you right click that icon your bookmark will be saved there. Left click
the icon and you will get a list of the bookmarks you have saved. You can
save up to 200 bookmarks here if the three Quick Bookmarks aren't enough :)
