Wes - Your approach seems logical, although I have a few questions:
1. Why do you first save images as TIFFs, then convert to JPEG? Why not
save as JPEGs from the beginning?
2. Where and how do you maintain original documents, such as birth
certificates? Should these be kept in a safe?
3. Is
Do I need to type an entire document's contents into the Text/Comments tab
in the Source Detail if I've scanned the document and have it linked to the
source? I don't see the purpose of this and would like to save myself from
the extensive time and effort needed to type in the text of each
reasons are sound, so I'll continue putting the effort in, but will try the
tools that Jenny mentioned to see if they relieve some of the tedium.
Best,
Priscilla

I've downloaded federal census images from ancestry.com and saved them as
.pdf files, but the copies are too small to be useful/readable. Any
thoughts on how to make readable soft copies of such documents?
Thanks!

used this and recommends it before I start converting all of my Legacy

The titles for the data field on the Individual Information page are red
when the data have been sourced. Why was this changed from blue?

I link a master source, including an image of the source document, to an

When I go back to the assigned source list, I find that the link to the
source image is no longer working in some cases.
Any thoughts?

I inadvertently deleted a person. How can I retrieve him (and all my
work!)?
I dearly hope someone has an idea as re-entering all of his information
will be time-intensive and painful.

The images are all jpegs and I am linking them under the Media tab when I
create a new source for an event. Does that help?
Many thanks,

earlier version. I've searched the C: drive for the file and only the new

The 1870 Federal Census for one of my ancestors indicates that he was
an inhabitant of "St. George's Hundred Subdivision No.9". in New Castle
County, Delaware. I'm familiar with the Hundreds and have a map of the
Delaware Hundreds from the 1868 state atlas, but can find no reference to

.FSD, .TC, .RC3, and .RGD files.
Do I rename "Restored Jess family file 21 Sep 2016 2016-09-21 4.09.29 PM"
or will Legacy find it with this name?
Many thanks,

NEW FILING METHOD 2015 sub-folder.
*QUESTIONS*
1. Will Legacy be able to find my source media if I remove the aaNEW
FILING METHOD 2015 sub-folder from the path?
2. Is there a way to make a global change rather than having to change
the path for each individual document or photo?
Many thanks,
