I have another idea about sharing genealogy.
I’ve had a few members of my immediate family express interest in the ‘family history’. Now, that may seem simple to them but I’m not sure what they mean and I get a brain twist going on every time. … [continued]
1. can you create a cemetery list in legacy family tree
I put my cemeteries under Burial Address which puts them into the Master Event Address List. If you do too and you want a list for one cemetery it’s easy. Just choose the cemetery, click Show List and then Create Search List. It will show up in the Name List and you can print it from there. … [continued]
There’s no such thing, technically speaking, as running Legacy from Dropbox.

Legacy Family Tree’s IntelliShare Day 3. I thought we’d hit an impasse. The Merge was being held hostage.
Cousin refused to send me her family file. She wanted me to import and merge one small export file after another, piecemeal. She thought she could win with stubbornness. … [continued]
Day 2 of Intellishare. I got cuz out of the research rut but we immediately took a sharp left into another ditch.
She told me she didn’t have time to work on genealogy for a few days so I said, “Ok.” … [continued]
