I've been using Legacy Family Search for a short while now, and have linked 25-30 ancestors to my Legacy file. In doing the linking, in some cases I have also merged duplicates in Family Tree. When I merge, I effectively delete one or more people. It's possible that one of those deleted people is

Legacy sure does warn you about possible duplicates after the merge, during the merge you must check for links and events, if you do you will catch any link you want or don't want. Eliz Not Today and Not without a Fight (Anon) For all that has been, thanks. For all that will be, yes. (Dag

I think we are talking about different links. What I am referring to is the link that is created when in LFS I click on the button ‘this person is the same as mine’. That tells my Legacy file (and only my Legacy file) that as far as I am concerned, RIN 1234 in my file is the same person as

Thank you Ron! For ages now, whenever I've generated a descendant chart it's been in a layout that I didn't want. I assumed it came from a time when I printed one out - I almost never print these out (I usually save as a .txt file) - and assumed that next time I did want to print, I'd get to
