Re: 1939 Register on Find My Past

It looks as if FMP have removed the reference Piece Number from the results. There must have been too many people using this method to see the names on a page

Re: 1939 Register on Find My Past

I have just received another 25% offer, it came with the FMP Fridays newsletter, so perhaps you need to subscribe to that to get the discount.

Re: 1939 Register on Find My Past

As I have a FMP subscription I got 25% off a 5 household bundle. You get a transcription for the household first of all then when you look at the image you see everyone on the page.

Re: Import Microsoft Word

I have some pdf and Word documents that I would like to incorporate into a DVD. They are like narrative reports but with several images built into them.

Is there any way I can incorporate a narrative report that was created outside of FH?

Findmypast - no newspaper images

Is anyone else having problems seeing newspaper images in Findmypast? Since Saturday afternoon whenever I click to see an image it gives me an error message. I have reported it (twice) but had no acknowledgement.

Add Assessment to Citations for a Source

I used this to change 1911 census from secondary to primary and checked the overwrite existing assessments, but instead they have all changed to unreliable. I though I had made a mistake the first time but I repeated it and it has happened again.

Re: Exporting Family Historian GEDCOMs

This has been posted before (but I can't find the link), use the plugin 'Export Gedcom File' and choose the FTM mode and export character code UTF8

No doubt someone will be able to provide an explanation

Re: Minor changes on this site

This screen no longer displays properly on my ipad, I assume that is because of the changes. Do you have any plans to make it appear properly on a tablet again?
