But people who use the ? instead of M or F when they have a child of unknown
gender (either because they don’t even have a name or because the name could be
either) need the italics to indicate that the gender is unknown. If I suspect
a child might in fact be a girl I enter a daughter, but
Let’s say on a census record a woman states she is the mother of 8 children
with 6 children living. I add two “unknown” children but I just fill in the
surname only. I put the birth/death dates between the date of the census and
the last known date that I have (usually their marriage date) and

The colour for persons of unknown gender can be set by the user. The
default is blue which is the same as the default male colour. To set the

Hi Jan,
I use the color green for ? red for female and blue for male. I can
easily see the unknown person entries because they are green and
scattered through my index. It is not important but I would really like
all entries to be in normal text and use color to distinguish them. If I
don't know
I either attach them as detail of a source if I have another image of the event
to which they refer. But if I have no other image I attach them to the event
itself. Remember that pdf files will not print in a report or a web page
created in Legacy, they have to be opened within a pdf reader.

I want to attach them to my Legacy file not because I want them to print in
a report but rather to make it easy to refer back to the document if I need

Are you adding these individuals as unlinked individuals? Have you
thought about tagging them as uncertain where they fit?
Thanks Brian, you learn something every day!

I was thinking of putting them in the regular photo album of

Those of you that do scan documents into Legacy, where do you put them?
To some extent it depends upon what the documents are, and how many people they

I have several folders for photos. I divvied them up by grandparent.
I have another folder for censuses. Well, actually I have two for

Yes Sherry I am adding these sets of information (DATA) which is not directly
related to one individual as unlinked individuals. The information that I
store I may like to use at some stage in my reports so I am uncertain where it
fits. Really I am just using Legacy as my filing system on
