Re: [LegacyUG] Baptism and Christening

Al, Personally, I do not distinguish between chr and bap. I had a Catholic raised father that told my mother that we could be baptized as long as it was not Catholic. So to me I see it the same. I was bap. Baptist and my father and his ancestors were bap. as christened. I chose to enter the

[LegacyUG] Legacy on different systems

Can Legacy family files be shared between two computers with different Windows operating systems? For instance XP and Win7 with Dropbox or just with USB drive? Erin Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009:

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy on different systems

Paul, Thank you for that extra tip. Using the default Legacy folders C:\Legacy\Data.. works fine, as will anything up in the 'root folder', often C:\something. I actually use Dropbox, but have installed it as C:\Dropbox, rather than the normal default C:\My Documents\Dropbox precisely because

Re: [LegacyUG] UnSourced Internet Trees

I have a perfect example of unsourced trees. I contacted a woman on Ancestry that had included my great grandfather Merret. She even had a copy of his deaf certificate with cause of death. When I contacted her to ask how she was related to him (I had a copy of his Bible record with all the

Re: [LegacyUG] UnSourced Internet Trees

Tom, I would not have been against including her in our family. But she obviously didn't want to be part of mine. I do go back to a family reunion of a branch of descendants and when asked which line I belonged to, I replied that actually I was descended from J. C. Merret. The lady then said,
