When I am working off of a long search list...I print it to a
phantom printer and then open it in a PDF program...
To keep it simple, I always include the RIN numbers which makes it
easy to pull up the names.
As I work my list, I cross thru the finished ones.

Why not just untag the ones you're worked on, unless you plan on using
that same tag group for something else.
Either double click on the X in the Search List or click on the tag
in the Family View, Pedigree View or Individual Information window.

Sherry, the approach allows for tag group re-use which I have found useful on
occasions.

As far as I know, there is no GEDCOM involved with Families. It has a two way
interface with your Legacy file, updates on either your computer or your tablet
are synced to the other. The Ipad version uses Itunes to sync, Android version
uses a separate syncing app.

There is absolutely no need to gedcom your data. Families has a direct sync
between Legacy on the PC and iPhone/iPad device. I would imagine there is also
a direct sync for Android devices.

the event and location will travel for ALL of them as the children move on.
Also if the parents get married again, then this same event and location will

One reason might be that since the census records a family group it can
