Bernier commented on Debbie Anne Jackson's group Ireland and Irish Ancestry"The correct spelling is Skiffington but I have found it spelled several ways...Skeffington, Skivington, Skevington, Scheffington.....guess you could spell it pretty much like you want. Thanks...appreciate your help."
Eileen N. Bernier commented on Debbie Anne Jackson's group Ireland and Irish Ancestry"Robert, I don't think either of the marriage records you sent are my Michael. The Michael Skeffington, below, is a possibility. I have seen this record before but have not been able to track it any further so am not able to prove it…"

Eileen N. Bernier commented on Debbie Anne Jackson's group Ireland and Irish Ancestry"Yes, you are right....my Bernard was Skiffington. Sorry, I wasn't thinking I guess. Mary Anne died 10 Aug 1858.

Eileen N. Bernier commented on Debbie Anne Jackson's group Ireland and Irish Ancestry"Robert, RE: Skiffington/Quinn; I can add a little more info if it will help you.

Skiffington family
I have been looking, unsuccessfully, for the place that my great great grandparents came from in Ireland. His name was Michael Skiffington, born in Ireland about 1823. He married Mary Quinn. In 1848 their first child was born in Philadelphia, Pa. I have been unable to find any passenger records on them. Assuming they married in Ireland but don't know that for sure. I have everything I can find on them in the United States, but nothing gives any indication of when they came here or where in…See More

He sent you really good stuff.
Separately, I'm going through your family group sheet (FGS) line by line, comparing your notes to those I have in my research log. You have some dates and items I don't have ... but I have some recorded that you aren't showing. Will send that comparison along to you when I have it done. Ditto, believe we need to add the census located as sources ... if we don't, no doubt one of us will search for them again (LOL).
More later. Yes... great progress. --GJ

- Hi Eileen:
FGS rec'd and it's in pdf form!
In the event you and Russ further solve the mystery, you can "SEND" the FGS from FTM to YOURSELF (to your own email address). When it arrives, you can open the email and save the file to your hard drive ...
It's a work around, but one that works!

- Sounds like both you and the historian did good jobs!
Will send you my personal email address by private note in the event we need to use the "send" option on the FGS. If it comes, however, as a FTM file (rather than pdf), I won't be able to open. --GJ

- Hi Eileen:
All in one printers do like to 'own' your machine. In this case, however, your computer would ordinarily seek out the PDF printer and ignore any problems with your physical printer.
One option you might try is setting the PDF printer as the defaul printer, then trying the print function. After you've tried that sequence, you can then switch the default back to you physical printer.

- Humm... it sounds like the same thing, but FTM has been owned by Ancestry for so many years. I'm going to post a comment about that to your discussion at FTM Fans.

- I'm wondering if you are missing a pdf printer. Will you check your control panel > printers ... let me know if you have a device, "Adobe PDF?"

- Hi Eileen:
GenWise FTM group would like you to post a discussion about your question. Click HERE for the "Family Tree Maker Fans" add discussion window. You probably want to post something like:
FTM 2009: Help creating Family Group Sheet in PDF file format
Hoping someone will help me with output from my FTM 2009 file. I'd like to create a Family Group Sheet (FGS) in some electronic form- prefer a pdf--something I can attach to queries I post on GenealogyWise.
I'm not a techie, but have found the FTM commands for "Print, Share and Export." Now what!
Thank you for any assistance you are able to provide. --Eileen.

Hope that helps. If NOT, please join the FTM User Group, Start a New Discussion, and post the details of what you want AND what you did. Details are very helpful.
Thank you,
