My question was, if doing it this way is the reason my tree got messed

This format has worked for my family and they all say it has made the

tree had errors when it upgraded to Legacy. I had a

So if someone were to look for Tommaso Giunta birth year 1873 (95)
that means the birth record of 1873, is number 95. Does that make

Don't you mean death date after 1839? The problem is that this will give you
those who were not born before 1839. If you tag those who have an Event place

Bob,
Just a quick piece of advice for those who may at some time consider creating a
website - do not have spaces in your file names, use an underscore or hyphen
instead, otherwise they may well not work.
In fact it is best only to use alpha-numeric characters in addition to the
above two.

I have thousands of file names with spaces in them because I like the

Pat,
Check the Master Event Named Property. Make sure that it is NOT marked
Private. If the Master Event is marked private those events will not be
included in reports unless you tell Legacy to include Private Master
Events on the Privacy tab of the Report Options.
