Re: [LegacyUG] Locations: towns in multiple counties?
I have one that straddles state lines. Springhill, Webster, Louisiana - or Springhill, Columbia County, Arkansas. To make it even worse, the Springhill Cemetery there NOW is in Louisiana. The ORIGINAL is in Arkansas. So when I have this issue I include in the NOTES section, a blurb about the two similar, but different, locations, and in parenthesis I include any postulating on my part; ex (probably Webster Parish, but not confirmed 2/17/15). I also have this issue with Shiloh Cemeteries, as there are about a dozen within fifty miles of each other, all in different towns and varying parishes in Louisiana. So I just make very detailed notes. If I have an absolute confirmation, I put that in the appropriate field, but if there is any doubt, I always add the other possible locations to my notes so I don't continue to postulate without results.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legal Name Changes
I enter the main name in Legacy as I will find it in 90% of their documentation. My example is my father. He was born G. Stephen Morgan. He did not know this until he was around 22 years old and met his biological father. He was adopted at age 16, and at that time he made his name Stephen M. Kaylor - He'd gone by Stephen Kaylor his entire life to that point, not knowing he WASN'T SMK. He picked his middle name so it started with an M, as his birth name ended with an M. So, for all intents and purposes my father is in my database as Stephen M Kaylor, and the G Stephen Morgan is under his AKA. There are only three documents I have found to date that use G Stephen Morgan, his original birth cert, his baby book, and the divorce decree between his biological parents. Everything else, school records, marriage cert, hospital records, newspaper articles, work history, SS statements, etc. are all under SMK. I have a few relatives with similar situations, so I opt to file them as what I know them by and will find the most documentation as. *Jessica Morgan* *Sr Engineering Technologist, Black Stone Minerals* *Chair, SPE GCS Petro-Tech Study Group* On Tue, Jan 20, 2015 at 9:40 AM, Michele/Support mich...@legacyfamilytree.com wrote: Al, I will use my uncle as an example.

Her name does not match her father’s but that is okay. I always record the name at BIRTH for consistency’s sake. IF this had been a legal name change and IF I had the court documents in my possession, then I would add an event for the name change.

And apparently something was not quite right with Roxio leaving a Windows Installer config file around. Perhaps the fix-it tool will catch that, or he may wish to contact Roxio and ask them to fix their misdirected install. But the big question in my mind is why does Legacy want to run the Roxio config file? Apparently no other program is wanting to do that.

Re: [LegacyUG] Creating a mtDNA LIST of ancestors
Thank you. This will give me at least a list of the right people, but I need an ordered Descendant report that shows the relationships to each other, birth, death, and marriage dates with spouse names. I suppose if I export the gedcom file of these tagged it will give me a file to work with and create the report. I prefer to not export a gedcom and do it that way though.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charting question
Yes Brian, I understand all that. I'm at the point where I want to order the chart, but am not sure about which width is appropriate. I don't want it too spaced out, nor too compressed. I cannot tell by the screen visual whether this will be the case. So does the order process default to the best size for your chart, or some other default and I need to change this? My box width is 1.5, Generation width .375, Space .25. Showing 4 generations. At the bottom of the screen it shows Size 280.5 x 33.00 - so I would assume I would need the 36 minimum?

[LegacyUG] 8.0.0.439 Sources and Duplicates?
I've been working very hard on a few files for a family reunion coming up, and today I open up files to continue where I left off, and find that the sourcing is completely gibberish in every file I open, as well as two to five duplicates of persons in multiple databases. The RINs are all out of order too. I have one file that the beginning person is listed correctly, then two generations down he's also listed as his grandson's son, then his great grandson's father. I'm so frustrated Is there a known bug in 439 for any of this, or is it just me? Any tips on trying to correct the problems? I'm in tears over here! I've opened multiple files, of different branches of my family, and they are all like this. I've had zero computer problems.

Re: [LegacyUG] Source a phone call
I feel they are all interchangeable to some degree. Personally I have created a source called Conversation, and anything done in passing, via phone call, off the cuff, etc is sourced that way in my files. This begs the question of sourcing more non traditional sources. Has anyone broached the issue of sourcing Facebook? We have a family group there to keep up with each other, and often times family will post birthdays, anniversaries, congratulatory items, births, deaths, and photos and documents there to share.

As any grandmother would do, she gave the time, weight, length and name along with a description of who the baby favored. Perhaps a template Announcement should be added.

Re: [LegacyUG] DNA Testing
I have had two Ancestry DNA kits done on direct family. I'm still sketchy on the results, and not utilizing them 100% at all. It doesn't come with a whole plethora of laymen instructional terms. I don't know half of what the site refers to. It takes research and time that I don't quite have right now. As for ease of use, Ancestry was very simple, got results timely, etc. That being said, I also downloaded the DNA files from Ancestry and uploaded them to Gedmatch. I have hundreds of hits on gedmatch, and as it referenced both matches exactly as they are (grandfather and granddaughter) as far as generational match, I'd say it is pretty accurate. Again, I have a hard time reading the data, but the gedmatch info gives you email addresses to other members you match and you can then correspond with them. I have a cousin that did the 23andme.com DNA testing. It seems to have more information medical wise and such. Again, I can't understand it all!

I have 3 trees on Ancestry and connecting with others that may be a match appeals to me.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children
Thanks for the thumbs up. Someone else stated that it wasn't wise to number the children, because it could be in error. I have to interject, that I only number the children if I have documentation that tells me how many there were, then I source the documentation. I am scrupulous at notes and such, so I know where that number came from, and how solid, or vague, it could be. Even if I have to make notes to myself that say something like may not be 6 children, could be more or less. I will also add male or female, and any other identifying information I can. Referencing the twins I discussed earlier, I know one set was of two males, so they actually say: Twin Set 1 of 2 Child 1 Twin Set 1 of 2 Child 2 Twin Set 2 of 2 Male 1 of 2 Twin Set 2 of 2 Male 2 of 2 I wanted to be able to positively identify two sets of twins in my data, and it reflect that in any reporting. Had I just marked Twin 1 and Twin 2, it could have been misunderstood as duplicates at some point, and an entire set of twins wiped out of my database. No bueno! I didn't reference any other info I make -- because the original poster was asking about naming in the child section of the screen. Any other pertinent info, DOB, DOD, etc would be put in its proper place. I do the same thing for unidentified spouses and parents, or those with first names only. Karen (wife of John James) Oscar (father of Karen James) This helps with keeping erroneous duplicates to a minimum. I don't have to keep checking all my Karen and Oscar names when I have multiple partially identified (I have lots of John, Jimmy, Moses, and Samuel) Jess On Wed, Jul 30, 2014 at 3:49 PM, Paula Ryburn paula.ryb...@sbcglobal.net wrote: I have done similar to Jess...

I am tempted to ignore the number, but realise that it would be useful to note it with the family to help as a check in the future. Is there any way to add a number to the family records that will show up in the children display? I tried adding an unknown gender child named Given: 4 children (Colin+Karen) (for example), and wonder if anyone has tried this or something like it and can report on its success or limitations.

Re: [LegacyUG] e-mailing questionnaire
You could put the questions in Google Docs as a spreadsheet, form fill, or survey type. Then they type answers directly into it, and it saves in your Drive. You can then retrieve the answers from multiple people. Or as a doc and one person could fill out one doc. Did that make sense? I have a survey online for family to fill out with name, address, email, phone, etc. to keep up with current info for reunion notifications.

[LegacyUG] Right way to add essays or excerpts from others to Family File
I have several essays written by others that I would like to include in my family file somewhere, but I'm not certain the best location to put them. Should I put them as sources, general notes, event notes, etc??? Example.. I have a two page essay written by H Caraway titled My Mother Bertie Le Mills Fish 1906-1997. It is basically memories of H from her childhood regarding her mother. So what is best practice to document this?
