Re: [LegacyUG] Creating FGS reports with select event.

[Gordon Taylor]

My discussion was with Ken McGinnis and Dave.
You can exclude all event using the event option on the FGS by three categories 
but must exclude all of them.
for example events for children.

I will talk to the develoers.  Thanks

The only selection option Legacy has ever had for events in reports has
been based on privacy settings. Events can be set as private and then
they will be excluded unless you elect to include private events in the
report.

Re: [LegacyUG] adding illegitimate children

[Chris Hill]

This is easy.

You have a child from the original Mum and Dad parents who has a 
relationship with her step-father. You simply go to the child record in 
the Family view and add her step-father as a 'husband', flagged as not 
being a marriage, and then add her child to that relationship. Also 
works in the case of a child who had a child by her father.


For the child who had a child with no known father, you just add the 
child to her record and let the system create a 'fake, non-existent' 
father (only occurs usually if you create a GEDCOM from it).


Regards

Chris

Subject: [LegacyUG] adding illegitimate children

Hello all: This is my first question to ‘the group’ and I trust you 
will be patient while I find my way around.


I have looked at the Legacy help pages and most of the group posts on 
the subject matter but still cannot find the ‘right’ way to achieve the 
results I am trying to create.




The actual situation I’m trying to record comes from a ‘ regular’ 
family where Dad married Mum and they had several children but 
unfortunately Dad died young.


Mum then remarried (her second husband thus becoming stepfather to the 
children from her 1st marriage).




What followed, has caused my recording problem as three of Mum’s  
daughters each had a child prior to marriage.




The biological father of two of those children proved to be the 
aforementioned stepfather – for the 3rd child the father was unknown.


I can’t seem to include the two (stepfathered) children without Mum 
being shown as their mother (she would actually be their grandmother !) 
by virtue of her being the wife of their father (the stepfather, Mum’s 
2nd husband) nor can I avoid the stepfather (the biological father of 
Mum’s daughters’ children) being shown as the husband of Mum’s two 
daughters who bore the stepfather’s two children !




The ‘unknown’ father of the 3rd daughter’s child is less of a problem 
until that daughter marries (but not to ‘unknown’) and starts her own 
family, when her pre-marriage child is then shown as the son of her new 
(1st) husband.




This latter problem also occurs with the other two daughters and their 
pre-marriage children (fathered by the stepfather) when they marry for 
the first time and start their own families with their new (1st) 
husbands.




Please HELP me to record these events correctly.

Many thanks, stay well, best wishes from.Phil Grace

Re: [LegacyUG] adding illegitimate children

[Brian Kelly]

First question would be do you have show 1/2 kids turned on and are you 
thinking children are showing as part of a family when they are actually 
showing a 1/2 kids?


To confirm which families the kids belong to select the child and place 
them in the middle section of Family view.


Look for the parent icon (should be two people with white hair). If that 
is coloured and has a number then the kid has multiple parents, if there 
is no number then there is only one set of parents. Click the Icon to 
see the names of the parents.


For the daughters who had a child with their step-father he should be 
shown as the parent of the grandchild with the daughter as mother. No 
other parents should be listed. If there is the daughter's husband and 
daughter listed as parents as well as the step father then you need to 
un-link the child from that couple by selecting the couple then using 
the Unlink from child button. This will leave the daughter and her 
step-father as the only set of parents. If the daughter and stepfather 
do not appear as parents then use the link to existing parents button to 
select the daughter and Stepfather couple from the marriage list.


To solve the problem when the daughter who had a child with the unknown 
father. When adding the new husband it will be best to first add him as 
an unlinked person (CTRL-N is the keyboard shortcut to do that). With 
the husband selected add a wife by selecting the add existing. Select 
the daughter from the name list as that wife. If that causes Legacy to 
add the husband to replace the "Unknown" one then you will have to use 
the unlink child to remove the child from the marriage then select the 
child and use the Add Mother to add just the mother as his parent (this 
will restore a marriage of that daughter with an unknown husband).

Enter the child as unattached - then attach only the father.
