You have to choose whether to use the birth name as the main name and
the adopted name as an AKA or the other way around.

Currently the easiest way to do this is to use the Marriage List.
Order it by husband surname and then scan from the first Snider for a
spouse first name Margaret.
You can also set up the Index View to show spouses and scan that but

You can shrink the windows and display both the data and Legacy, but it does
take some thought so that both remain where you can use them. Another idea,
mentioned here yesterday, is to use a post-it note. You can google for a
computerized version.

This is a good example of where putting meaning in ID numbers is
problematic.
Tags, in my opinion, would be a better choice to identify family lines.

I like your use of the User ID field. I'm hoping that you can give
further explanation of your system. I have both mine and my husband's
families in the same database. Do you designate the family line (first

you will find what you are looking for.
Good luick,

Let me clarify this -
Tag all of the marriages of men with the last name of FLINDERS.
Tag all people in your database with Death Certificate event.
Search for all people with both tags.

You should be able to tag all of the marriages of FLINDERS men and tag
all with a Death Certificate event. Then do a search where both tags
exist.
