What a good, simple idea! I will try swapping those around tomorrow. Thank you.

Re: ‘Information Fact’
This is all excellent advice thank you. I found the ‘Information’ fact under the ‘more’ section and have amended the template as advised. I just now need to find all those Information Fact notes to check them to make sure that they ‘read’ correctly. If I have put a date in the date field, the senten...

‘Information Fact’
Two years ago, when I first added all my information, around 800 people, to FH I added a fact to certain people from the supplied list named ‘Information’. Here I stored all sorts of interesting info that would not fit anywhere else. Now, I am ready to update the tree and look at how I can publish m...

Correct a multiple spelling mistake?
I have realised that I have spelt a church name wrongly in my project. I have written St Wilfred's and it should be St Wilfrid's Church. I have searched for the entries and have written this over 50 times. Please can anyone explain if it is possible to correct them all together and if so, how to do ...

Appendices?
Help please. I have some photos with the whole family group ( Golden Wedding in 1890) and a copy of a fundraising poster after the Battle of Waterloo) that are impossible to see unless they are A4 size. I thought of putting them in an Appendix at the end of the report that I will eventually produce ...

Several residences, over time, for one person
I am slowly getting to grips with this and love the program! My problem at the moment is this? I have people that have several places of residence for e.g. 'Matthew lived in Topcliffe just before and after his marriage' and ' Matthew lived in Breckenbrough when his first son was married'. Some of th...

Re: NOTE tab in Property Box
Many thanks, I've got it sorted now - putting as much as possible in 'FACTS' and I've added a new custom Fact and called it Miscellaneous Information for the rest. All the info now shows up in the Reports that I've looked at so far. For any other novice looking at this, I had to alter the sentance t...

NOTE tab in Property Box
Many thanks to everyone, I've completed the merge & now have one large file. See 15027|Merge two large family trees into one project? I have about 20 records that have duplicate entries in the FACTS tab but they are the closest people to me and I have lots more data to enter for them anyway so that ...

Re: Merge two large family trees into one project?
Many thanks for all the advice, brilliant so far! I've got both trees safely into Family Historian and all the information seems to be there and correct. Haven't had time to check thoroughly yet but will do. Two questions about the next step - to merge the two trees together. I would like to keep se...

Re: Merge two large family trees into one project?
I can't find the specific instructions for importing trees produced in Generations. They are Gedcom files. Can you send me a link to the correct page please. Thank you

Re: Merge two large family trees into one project?
That's great, thank you. I hadn't read that as I didn't know the words to look for! I realise now that 'merge' is the key word. I will try it later.

Merge two large family trees into one project?
I have two large family trees - my family and my husbands family. I am wondering if it would be better to combine them into one very large tree, and, if so, how to do it. I have them both as Gedcom files on my computer (both made in the old Generations program) and have just bought Family History to...
