[LegacyUG] ***SPAM*** Re: ***SPAM*** Re: ***SPAM*** Re: ***SPAM*** RE: A question about FAG numbers

[Gene Young]

  
  
This has been an interesting thread.


Regarding the occasions where you may
  find a duplicate FAG entries for the same person, be aware there
  may very well be two legitimate entries for a single individual.
  Consider the instance where a person may have died a long way from
  home and the family could not afford to have the remains shipped
  home. The person would have been buried where they died and the
  family would install a marker in the family plot. This marker,
  which looks exactly like a grave stone, is called a cenotaph. Some
  times there will be a note in the FAG entry denoting this. Other
  times you will have to use your genealogy detective skills to
  determine the burial location and the cenotaph location. If you
  are able to definitively establish which is which, notify the
  maintainers of each of your findings so each can enter this
  information and enter a reference to the other to assist others
  who encounter this pair.



I enter the burial location number in
  the FAG field as the burial location and I enter the cenotaph
  number as a comment in the comments field in the source detail. 



I have created a master source for each
  cemetery with this format:
Cemetery - Find A Grave, Alex Cockram
  Cemetery, FAG ID2246704. 
This helps in keeping things in order.


I also tag everyone in my database as
  follows:
Has a FAG # - Tag 7
has a burial location: - 6

no FAG - 5
When i find a FAG entry I clear 5 and
  6.


I don't expect that everyone will
  follow this guide but I find it helps to make information easily
  available for research.


This post has been long enough so I
  will save other comments for another time.
Good hunting, 

Gene

  As a side issue, I have found FAG memorials including photos, for individuals who died and were buried  elsewhere – with no mention that the Memorial is not in the burial or death place. In fact, for 3 instances, the birth and death places in the FAG memorial text asserts that they actually died in that place (Australian state #1), when it was actually at another (Australian state #2) which is more than 300km distant.




Unless I have other proof that the person is actually buried where FAG says the Memorial is, I do not record the FAG entry as a Burial event, but simply as a "general" Event entitled "Memorial Inscription"  which reads something like "Memorial Inscription: A Gravestone in XYZ Cemetery, Cemetery Address, bears the inscription 'Joe Bloggs, son of Jack, died 01 January 1801.  Rest in Peace.'"

If I had proof that the FAG entry is incorrect I would message the person maintaining that entry.  I don't think I've had to do that so far, but on several occasions I have provided additional information which has been accepted and recorded.

Re: [LegacyUG] No evidence of marriage

[Gene Young]

  
  
I have occasionally found evidence
  indicating that the person never married. A death certificate, an
  accumulation of census entries, etc.  I use these as presumptive
  evidence and set the surety level accordingly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 9 Family View Screen

[Gene Young]

Linda,
Turning the computer of rather than re-start does nothing.  When you 
turn it off it saves the current state of the computer, as is, including 
any errors that exist in memory.  When you the start the computer again 
it reloads everything, including errors.  When you do a restart it will 
flush the memory and start fresh.  Remember, re-start clears and flushes 
memory, turning off and on preserves the state of memory, saving and 
re-loading all existing errors.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing

[Gene Young]

I believe this is what the OP is referring to.  I do not believe it can 
be turned off.

-
When you are in Assigned Sources and a source is highlighted, if you 
click on the copy source icon in the lower left of the page. You get a 
warning;

Copy to Clipboard
The Source Clipboard currently contains a source. Do you want to
Overwrite it or Cancel?
Copy/Overwrite Existing   Cancel
-
If this is not what the OP is referring to disregard.

As a side note, it is helpful if, when requesting help, you specifically 
reference the page or tab you are looking at.  This information will be 
displayed at the top of the page or tab you are seeking help on. It will 
save confusion and speed up your assistance.

Jennifer,

I think you are talking about the Prompt for Detail on the Source 
Clipboard so that you can change the detail before applying again.
I leave it on because I often change source on the clipboard and 
forget I have.

But sure you can turn it off.
Look at the Source Clipboard screen when it is open.
See the checkbox lower left corner.
It is also controlled from Options > Customise 7.4
If you watch any of the webinars from Geoff Rasmussen you'll see he 
works with it off but is far more disciplined than I am in applying 
the particular source and detail to every field and person it applies 
to before doing anything else.

Re: [LegacyUG] Check/Repair problem

[Gene Young]

In Index view, in the box for RIN, enter the first RIN, 23361.  That 
should highlight an individual. Double click on the individual and the 
individual's Information box will open. On the bottom center of that box 
click on the text "Find a Grave ID".  That will connect you to the Find 
a Grave entry for that Find a Grave ID.  If the names and data match, 
that one is the correct one.


To double check, repeat for the RIN 23365.

Delete the Find a Grave ID from the incorrect individual.

I can't figure out how to deal with this. I checked the two 
individuals with those RIN's and confirmed that they both use FAG as 
sources. However, I don't know what to look for or what to "fix". Does 
anyone have ideas on this? Thanks!

There are Event record(s) that reference a Role that does not exist:


  
  
I do not use Share for Census Events, so my list of Event roles for Censuses should be the original. It shows "None - leave blank", "Occupant" and "Witness"and then "add/edit roles..." so just create "Occupant" or "Witness" if you need to, just as you created "spouse", etc.

  ***SPAM*** Recorded source materials
  


   

  
I'm
  confused about creating sources and
  then linking them to individual
  records.  Excuse me if I can't express
  myself clearly.  I know what I want to
  do but don't understand the best way
  to it.


  
 


  
For
  example,


  
 


  
I've
  created a record for a page from the
  1892 NY State census.  There are 28
  people from my family on this image. 
  How do I attached the exact same
  citation to each person without
  creating a new record for each?


  
 


  
Or
  maybe--- I shouldn't be creating a
  source for just one page, but for the
  whole census and then details for each
  but I still don't want to have to
  recreate an entry for each person.


  
 


  
Thank
  you for any input!

Re: [LegacyUG] Problems with Backup

[Gene Young]

  
  
You can not restore from a copy,
  however you can copy the files from the external drive back to the
  PC.
You only have to ensure that you copy
  everything to the right locations so the paths are correct.

It's a bit strange to get either of these if you are backing up to your computer hard drive as you indicate.
The default location for backups is ...\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\Data\ folder but that's because it's a folder Legacy created so knows about. You should backup to an external drive or to a folder that syncs to the cloud - like a Dropbox folder or Google Drive or OneDrive.

To use the backup data zip, you don't unzip it yourself. You use File > Restore File in Legacy and it does the unzipping as part of the process.

Legacy allows you to print to an excell file.  In preparing to print each file, 
do not select first and last name together rather select surname, then first 
name, birth date and death date. Now you are ready to print the entire data 
base to an excel file.  After it has printed, open the excel file and input the 
name of the database in the first blank column. Repeat these steps for the 
second database.  In the first empty column input the name of the second 
database. Copy the entire page for the second database and paste the results at 
the end of the first excel spreadsheet.  Do this for each remaining database.  
Finally sort the file by the using the surname and then last name.  Now you 
will be able to go down the alphabetical list which will tell you the database 
for each person.  For excel help, see youtube.

Re: [LegacyUG] Anyone know if there is an easy way to configure a single click button that uses replaceable parameters in URL ?

[Gene Young]

Andrew,

I can not understand how two clicks is so onerous a chore, however, if you had done a 
Google search for "Pin Website Shortcut to Taskbar in Windows 10"  you would 
have your one click shortcut in the taskbar, available whenever you want it, even if you 
are not running  Legacy at the moment.

What you want is not possible in Legacy.

To save you the "extra clicks" I am including the link to the directions on how 
to accomlish the above in Edge, Chrome and Firefox.

If you only want to click once then you can only have an icon that will 
open the website rather than set up the search.
Is it so hard to make two clicks instead of setting up the search yourself 
in Ancestry???
The mechanism has been provided to do what you want to do and you're 
bothered about the number of clicks to access it?
You can put the Search Internet onto your My Toolbar by customising your My 
Toolbar by going to Design > Toolbars > My Toolbar.

If you are importing data to Legacy using the Legacy FamilySearch Share
Data tab and clicking the little arrow on the relevant line you will be
given the option for an automatic Source to be added to your Legacy
file. If you are taking data from FamilySearch, then FamilySeach IS
your Source.

If you mean that want to copy a Source which has been added to an
individual in FS, then open the Sources tab in Legacy FamilySearch and

A quick search shows:

"A: There is a problem with gmail/googlemail - when you send a message to a mailing list,

Everybody else sees it, even other gmail users, but not you. And replies to your message will 
be threaded with your post as you sent it, not as it came back (ie without list headers, 
subject tags or footers). This is a "feature" of gmail, and there is nothing you or

"If your list has archives that you can check, you can at least see whether or not

Fire Shot is a browser extension and of no use in Legacy.  If you must take

generations on one screen, or, is there another way to show that to him via email? I've 
never done a screenshot and will need instructions so I can send it as a .pdf or ???

Any assistance would be FABULOUS! Thanking you in advance,

Additionally your customer number will be in the format 9x-xxx-xxx-xx for 
Legacy Version 9.  It should be in the email you received.

You should be asked for your customer number at some stage of the
installation process, as I understand it.  (It's a long time since I
installed Legacy and I forget things!)

Re: [LegacyUG] Version 9.0.0.265 Font Question

[Gene Young]

A possibility to check on:

*Note*:  Color scheme settings in Legacy also include the current fonts when 
they are saved.  Thus, when a saved color scheme is loaded, the font settings 
for Legacy will be changed to those saved with the color scheme.  See Customize 
- Colorsfor more information on color schemes.


I haven't checked this.



On 12/4/2018 6:42 AM, Chris Hill wrote:

I have been looking at that in the past. As far as I can tell there is no 
obvious way to set a specific font size for the text in the Notes.

On Customise / 10 Fonts you do have some control over fonts, but are limited.

1. You can change the font to be used for Notes (3rd entry in Screen Fonts) but 
not the font size, even though the selection includes the font size. Having 
tried different options, the Notes text is always the same size.

2. You can specify a *Min font size*. This is limited to 6 to 14 size, with a 
default of 6, but is only applicable to the data fields, buttons and some text 
within the Individual's Information and has no effect on the Event details 
display.

3. The only option which impacts on the Notes text size is the *Stretch fonts 
when resizing* tick. When this is enabled, expanding the size of the Event 
window will cause the font in the Notes text to be larger. I know that I had to 
make it larger since I had the same problem with font size. From experience I 
have found that I need the Event window to be about 35% of the display, but 
that would be dependent on your display size so you will need to experiment to 
find your best solution.

Chris

Re: [LegacyUG] import from family search

[Gene Young]

Open your new empty family file and enter the person you wish to download the 
information for.

On the tool bar select Search > Family search.  When the results show, choose 
the one you wish to download.

Towards the top you should see an icon for Import tree. (You may have to 
"Match" your individual first).

The family file will import into your new, empty tree.

Make sure you use a new empty tree because it is a bear to identify and remove 
all these individual from your good file.

Re: [LegacyUG] Is it possible to change colours in the “Vintage” colour scheme in Family View and Pedigree View?

Right click on the background and select change color scheme.

I had a bug and in process of fixing it, the person from Legacy Technical

I cannot find a way to get the Family View or Pedigree View background colours 
back to how they were. All of the available colour schemes are basically 
gradient except Vintage. I do not like gradient because I have a visual 
impairment. Vintage however seems to only have one colour scheme which is too 
bright and I cannot find a way to change its colours. I have tried options in 
the user-interface colours but nothing changes the colour of the background 
around the field boxes in Family View and Pedigree View.

 From my memory of when I set the colours many years ago, I used Vintage and 
changed the background colour, so I believe it can be done somehow.

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with a report, please

[Gene Young]

Actually its quite simple to accomplish what you want.  Create your PDF report 
in Legacy then use a free, open source program called PDFsam Basic (stands for 
PDF split and merge) to append your pdf files to your Legacy report.  I use 
this program often and have never had a problem.  You can download it at 
https://pdfsam.org/downloads/.  Just get the Basic, its all you'll need.

I have installed the update and all I had to do was re-enter my username and

In so far as I have only seen one complaint of a problem, I would be inclined 
to believe it as a problem specific to that users system.  You should have no 
problems with the up date if you follow the directions.  Backup, check/repair, 
compact family file and run media relinker then update.

Re: [LegacyUG] Split Screen View, Drag and Drop all in File, adding visible \par to text

Have you tried hitting the "Strip HTML" button in the notes field?  Copying 
from the web can often also copy embedded code and symbols that need to be removed.  It 
is possible that this is what you are seeing.

I don't know how hard you looked but I opened the help index, typed dictionary, clicked 
on "for spell checking" and found the answer in less than 10 seconds.

"To open the User Dictionaries window, click on the User Dictionaries button

The User Dictionaries window allows you to edit the contents of a user dictionary.

It is not Legacy. It is windows.  Windows remembers where a window was when the 
program closes and tries to put it back there.
You may have had a window open off screen when you closed Legacy and windows 
put it back there

Here's one way to "rescue" such an off-screen window and bring it back onto the 
active monitor:

Make the off-screen window the active window by clicking on its icon in the 
Windows Taskbar.
Press Alt+Space, and then press the M key. ...
Press any arrow key once.

If so, create the pdf, open it in adobe, set view to continuous.  click in a 
page and hit ctrl-a, ctrl-c.  Switch to your text editor (has to be text only I 
use Note tab Light) and paste.  It removes all formating and you can manipulate 
the text any way you desire before pasting into the word processor you prefer.  
I use Note
tab Light because it lets you easily use Regular Expressions to change ]space 
to ]tab and remove and insert paragraph markers at will.

They are encoded as "windows-1252".  Do a global search and replace with UTF-8.

Go to Help > Help Index and search for "Customize - General Settings".

Here you will find your answers to how you want Legacy to open.
It sounds as if you have 1.1 Program Startup set to last used view and/or 1.3

It would be useful to browse through the entire help file (with any software

If you drag it to a corner it will size to the corner.  Drag to the center of 
the side and it will snap to half size and present the option of selecting 
another window to snap to the opposite side.  The position of the cursor when 
it reaches the side determines the action.

Simple, I thought, I'll just get Legacy to do a detailed search, and
then do a print-out of the people who currently don't have an obituary
notice; I should also say that within my Legacy database I have an Event
named Obituary that all newspaper death notices get grouped under.


My Search request looked like the following:


Individual >> Death Date >> Before >> 30 Dec 1960

AND

Individual >> Death Place >> Contains >> Tasmania

AND

Individual >> Event-Name >> Not Equal to >> Obituary


This doesn't appear to work, as the results list gives me people who do
have an Obituary event.


My question is: Am I doing something wrong here ?

If your family file is named "MY_File.fdb"  You need to search for "MY_File.ldb", the

Apparently Legacy was open when your drive crashed and the lock file remained.

This is an access "Object invalid or no longer set" error.  Does it happen with

Re: [LegacyUG] Cannot open Legacy

[Gene Young]

Dave,
Brian gave an explanation in another email.  If shutting down does not work the 
next step is to search for and delete all files with an .ldb (lock data base) 
extension.

 From Microsoft:
 "Although .LDB files are typically removed when all users have closed the database, 
one or more .LDB files may occasionally be left behind. When this occurs, these files are 
safe to delete - they will be re-created the next time"

This file will prevent "another" instance of legacy from opening as it thinks 
it is already open.

Why this 'urban myth' of waiting a minute or two. The power's off, there's 
nothing left active in the machine. No need to wait.


It is not an Urban Myth.  The reason for waiting is so all the capacitors have 
a chance to completely discharge, allowing the ram to fully clear.

Re: [LegacyUG] problem with marriage sequence

Go to the Family tab of the individual with the multiple marriages and click on 
the spouses button under that individual. On the window that pops up there is 
an option labeled sort.  Pressing that will sort THIS individual's marriages by 
date, providing that dates are entered for each marriage.  Undated marriages 
will sort to the top.

If I want to see Facebook posts I go to Facebook.  If I do not want to see

see Facebook posts in my email I will turn on notifications and filter them to 
a separate Legacy Facebook folder.  I like to have choices and would be very

Legacy made the correct choice for everyone to enjoy either or both.

When you click OK you get:

Clicking OK results in the message;

 the Lexington, Kentucky area.

 2. Cremation took place but ashes weren't interred for quite some time
 afterwards (several instances of this.)

 3. Due to weather, person was not interred immediately. Most of these
 were due to people not being buried right away because ground was frozen.

 I don't want to turn off the potential problem alert, because it helps
 in correcting errors. Not sure what would happen if I add an additional
 burial event; make a custom re-burial event or used alternate burial event.

 Ideas?


When you have a potential problem that you know is not a problem, right click 
the red indicator and tell it to ignore this one instance.

 Adrian,

 Then it's probably not a family file problem, but a possibly program
 problem. Intermittent problems can be exasperating. Perhaps a fresh
 re-installation of Legacy will resolve the error 381. Please see the
 article Uninstall - how to do a complete and totally clean removal of
 Legacy 8.0 at http://support.legacyfamilytree.com/article/AA-00926. To do
 a fresh download of Legacy Family Tree 8.0 Deluxe, please visit

 This re-installation process will wipe out any customized setting you have
 made. If you want to keep them, please see

 them up. (Be aware that sometimes it's the customized settings that are the
 cause of a problem and restoring the settings may bring the problem back.)

My personal preference would be to back up the customized settings to a safe 
location first then delete them.  When Legacy recreates them, if the program 
works as it should, the settings were the culprit and I would re-add them one 
at a time to locate the offending file.  If the problem persists you at least 
know you can restore your customizations upon re-install.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy News : A problem

[Gene Young]

A check of your mail header shows you are running AVG antivrus.  A quick check 
on Google shows a number of problems Eudora has with AVG.  (That is one of the 
reasons I dumped AVG and use Avast.) Since you appear to be the only one having 
this problem I would suggest contacting Qualcom and asking them why their 
program is misbehaving.

http://www.justanswer.com/Eudora

You can cut and paste this link if it doesn't work.


Note:  I just went to that link and they want $42 to answer the question.  That 
tells me your best option would be to dump Qualcom's Eudora and load 
Thunderbird.

Are you using Standard or Deluxe?
 From the help files;
The formatting buttons however, are only available in the Deluxe Edition.

I have the Deluxe edition and the formatting buttons are there.

If you are using the Deluxe version (and have activated it in your upgrade) and 
you still have no formatting buttons I would suggest an uninstall/re-install.

I often search with wide open parameters end exact DOB's.  Go to the merge

Your frustration seems to be born of an inherent dislike for Legacy rather than 
based in actual fact.  What you want is already there.

He worked as a house carpenter from 15 Apr 1910 in Christiansburg, Montgomery,

 Perhaps someone has a clever solution. My site is bi-lingual. The only

 That is not the problem. But the problem is in the use of images. That asks 
 for quite a lot of server space that I have to rent, as both sub-sites have 
 the complete set of images. Does anyone has a solution to this problem other 
 than to rent more server space?

 Thanks for thinking with/for me

 Rob Vader




It really is not difficult.  Say the path to the folder with the pictures is 
IMG HREF=\Some_Server\MyPages\my_picture ALT=My_Picture and the other 
site is
IMG HREF=\Some_Server\Other_Language\my_picture ALT=My_Picture you just 
have to change all occurrences of \Some_Server\MyPages\ to 
\Some_Server\Other_Language\.
You can accomplish this with a number of programs.  I personally use BTR Wizard 
(Batch Text Replacer) from http://www.tildemh.com/.  It works fast and is free.

If this is the result you are getting you are doing something wrong.  I create 
one address location for each cemetery.  I then attach the appropriate 
individuals to the correct cemetery.  I have hundreds attached to a single 
cemetery and still have only ONE address location for the cemetery.  It sounds 
like you are creating a new cemetery every time instead of attaching the new 
person to the existing location.

 What they were saying is that in the Burial Place field, we should NOT put 
 the name of the cemetery, but instead put that in the Burial Place address 
 which is the field accessed by the + sign




That is correct and is exactly what I do.  I have one for each cemetery with no
