On the Marriage Information form you can select the option 0 - None -
You can also just highlight the new child in the children settings list and
click the up arrow (lower right) to move him up. (in case you didn't want the
children with no birth date to also move to the top)

Yes, that's the option I wrote about in my second mail, don't forget
to click the Apply button because if you don't click Apply the
existing married names will stay in your family file.

Now, that is a question which I never bother to ask myself about any software!
I am only ever interested in what it does and how can I use it to my advantage.

How would you represent a Best Fit set of parents? This concerns a direct
ancestor from a small island in Scotland (Islay). The available records have
gaps such that his parents will likely never be known; but there is one
family that stands out as a best fit in terms of locations, dates, names,

Agreed - even if you're not having funBut here, I think that the
assumption is that if we can enter something, we assume that the information
can be printed somehow.
We can enter Event Address notes, and we can enter notes for Master
Locations on the Add/Edit Location screen, but those notes
I just lost information that I entered in Legacy 7.
I entered some impute into my database and than clicked file, open new
file. I checked on some information and than closed the new file. I than
came back to the original file and all the new information that I entered
earlier was gone. OOPS
Russ,
I record them as a separate family with a note on each family to show how they
may be connected. Actually Islay is so small that all families with the same
name are probably connected.
Come to think about they are probably all related :-) Or were years ago

Is there a trick to using landscape printing in Pedigree Charts?
I have been through all the printer properties, printer setup menus that I
can find (software and printer), but the orientation will still only read
'portrait' - the 'landscape is greyed out' in the page set-up. (Using

Hi Anne,
Try using the Books/OtherPublishing CenterPedigree Chart. Once in the
Pedigree chart dialog, go to the Options tab and select page setup and you
should be good to go.
Hope this helps

Russ -
What I do is enter the family and use a ? in the Title prefix box,
explaining it in Research Notes. I do it this way to keep the family
together without having to remember that I have their info somewhere else.
It also flags the fact that there is a broken or unconfirmed link.

I have a similar situation on my paternal grandfather's line. He was,
according to family story, sent to an orphanage by his father after his
mother died in childbirth. I have found a family of children admitted to an
orphanage in the right time frame, with siblings with same names etc.

Carolyn,
As you will realise, I don't use the Notes fields for Locations (and obviously
for Addresses). However, each Location is attached to an Event and each Event
has a Note field into which I put everything I wish to put about the location.
For example my grandfather fought in WW1 and

Sorry for the late reply. I was away.
The short answer is no. I had not checked that checkbox option, so the
export broke lines in mid-word, as expected. For most types of GEDCOM
records, the import properly reconstructed those broken words. For the
'PAGE' record type, the import

Ward,
Notwithstanding my comments in earlier posts I have wondered the same myself,
it would seem sensible to me for not to break in mid-word to be the default. I
have never got round to suggesting this, but as I always check the box it would
remove the chance of me forgetting!

Carolyn,
Master Location notes actually can be printed. If you create a
location index in reports there is an option to include the location
notes in that index. They can also be included in the Location Report.
That said, I only use the location notes field for things like
directions to
I add a new child status called Perhaps and attach it to the child in

immediately that there is some doubt. For marriages I do the same thing -
make a Status entry of Perhaps, or Probable, which also appears on the
family screen. I

Somewhere - could be a footnote or in parentheses after the location. An

laboriously on, I can have them.
For instance:

Thanks for the tip! Doesn't do much for Event Addresses, however, which is
where I put cemeteries, directions, etc.

So how do we define proof anyway? I have seen birth certificates that are
wrong, etc. Generally what we have is a preponderance of evidence. In the
case below, assuming there are multiple siblings who match the correct
names, ages and birth order, what you have is multiple data points all in
27 matches
