Ron, Stephanie
I find that my "date problem" happens in OOo. If I use the date format xx,xx,yyyy then most of my dates appear correctly. For the ones that don't (1904) I can switch to default format and the correct date appears -…

I am running it on Windows 7 and had no trouble installing it. I am having problems with accuracy. I have a bunch of dates that show up as 1907 when there is no such date in the file

I have gone about as far as I can go in my lineage but keep on trying. My family originates in Portsmouth, but there are many loose strings in the surrounding area, so I collect them in a separate file and look for connections, such as brothers,…

Do you know of a way to import a complete GEDCoM into a time line??
A long way back I had such a program and cannot find it

I hate to see the bickering amoung us - it won't solve the problem.
Facts are that the owners of FAG benefit from quantity - it gives them a product to sell.
Genealogists that use FAG have a individual purpose and sensitivety and quanity is of…

Has anyone used the timeline feature or has a suggestion as to where to find one.
I have a separate file that I store "possibilities" in. Sometimes I come up with siblings or others that fill a void in my main data base.
I am looking for a…

I too think FAG has a very useful application BUT I feel changes should be made. An example is that in my search I have relatives buried in France (1914-1918). Some ambitious number quota hog has laid claim to entering all the data to the records…

I find the same in Florida. In one cemetery the "old section" was in a tattered notebook. They have a "volunteer day" when they spend four hours to find the graves and verify the records. One person looks after the…
David L Plaskett replied to Victor Scott Hickok's discussion 'creating Memorials - Where are they buried?' in the group FindAGrave Addicts
Your point is important!! I live in a small community and have several cemeterys close to me. I get several requests in a short period. The cemeterys are small so records are tattered and not in one place. The keepers have other jobs.
At one…

I am researching PLASKETT, HOPKINS and others. The PLASKETTS (Portsmouth) and HOPKINS (Lymington) were like many, workers in the Royal Dock Yards back to at least 1740. My grandfather migrated to Canada in 1903.
There are persistant…

I had the same problem. To make matters worse I had two relatives with the same name. I deleted the link (unlink) to the parents and relinked them to the desired person. The problem goes on if the off spring are also linked in error. You have…

Has anyone addressed the question of whether a person should be listed as a Jew if they were a prcticing Jew or a Jew (from Isreal). It seems to me that if a person is a practicing Jew their offspring may not be considered Jewish.
I have one that…
David L Plaskett replied to Alec Harvey's discussion 'Keeping photos and documents' in the group Legacy Family Tree fans
Its not the only way, but I prefer to keep all my photos of people in one directory with subfiles for each family branch. The reason I do it this way is so that I have each photo showing in the Legacy photo album and I can check it rather easily.…

You may be right! I don't know if I am dealing with politicians or used car salespeople
