Thanks for that information - that looks like an interesting option. I assumed

Hi Tony Geoff,
I see that Geoff seems to have agreed that it is the location at the time of
the event that is the crucial thing. The fact that it may not exist today is
somewhat irrelevant; unless you want to visit each location! I agree with Geoff
that cross referencing the current situation
Consistency is always key. Consistency in recording locations and using the
standard method will make your research more orderly and organized and more
valuable to other researchers.

That is a great concept, Ron. Try to keep selling the idea. It would make a
great standard for a new GEDCOM, it seems. Jerry

Ron,
In answer to your first paragraph only...
I could see how you could do this in a relational database by having a starting
and ending date for each location together with it's approximate grid position.
When entering a location a lookup to that table will provide a consistent
location.

I am now considering the iPhone 4s or iPad 2 and would like to use Families for
ONLY viewing my Legacy database on the iPhone or iPad.
I would not wish to do any editing. Is it possible to use your app in this
fashion with Legacy 7.5 deluxe? I only wish to load my current Legacy file,
I haven't tested this but go to your oldest bloodline ancestor. Do a
miscellaneous search.
Select that ancestor and chose select Add an idividual and Descendants then
on the following Descendant options select only his spouse (this will eliminate
all spouses from the selection criteria).
Thanks, Geoff.
I would also like to add that had I studied the history of an area early on
I would not have gone on several wild goose chases. My people near early
Pittsburgh in what is now Allegheny County were actually in a county in
Virginia. Records from that era are still kept in Virginia -

Dennis,
Correct on both counts. I assumed that if you removed the All Spouses option
by just selecting the immediate spouse of the Ancestor, that all descendant
spouses would be dropped - wrong assumption. I guess that just includes the
immediate spouse as well.
I guess you could achieve this
You could probably achieve this with sql and tagging.
Tag1 as before
Tag2 based on people whose parents are both not tag1 (if either one is tag1
then no tag2)
then step 4

Alan, would your solution allow one single location for each place or would you
still end up with multiple location names, based on time in history? Jerry

First off, I am a novice with family trees and with Legacy so I may not get all

I am trying to format multiple family trees so that I can print them as part of

Hi John.
If you have the Deluxe version of Legacy, you will see charting on the
toolbar. If not right click on the tool bar and drag it up. Use help
whenever. Select your primary person, then select charting. I think you
would want a 'Ancestor Upward'. You can drag drop the boxes where you
wish.
Alan,
Given the way in which Legacy currently works at present any Location field
should, in my view, have the option for the user to enter the full location,
including house and street, where applicable. It must also be able to do
this for every country in the world. There are currently 9
John,
If you prefer something less ornate and more compact than those Tim mentioned
in Legacy Charting you will find basic trees in Legacy ReportsCharts and
others.
