Family Historian User Group

I'd like to be able to change the placement of Notes relating to Facts when gerating Individual or Family Group Reports. At present all the Notes appear together at the end of the Report. However, I'd like the option to place any Note specifically related to a particular Fact immediately after that ...

A lot of the discussion about the merits/de-merits of V4 has centred on its lack of improved support for website/CD generation. If it were possible to generate a website based on the look-and-feel of the Focus Window, with the same 4 tabs (Spouses & Children, Parents & Siblings, Ancestors, Descenden...

If v4 is 'in Manufacturing' surely the code must be finalised. Can it not be released as a download now for those of us who plan to purchase the upgrade that way?

Hi Jane, I used the census-specific search rather than the global one. I did eventually get John Evans in the 1891 Census as you did - my concern is the incosistency between the usage of Monmouth as the county in 1891 and Monmouthshire in 1861 and 1901. I will run the search of the 1881 census again...

Well, one example - looking for John Evans in Newport, Monmouthshire in the 1891 Census returned 'No Results', which clearly isn't right. Then I discoverd that the 1891 Census has been indexed using 'Monmouth' instead of 'Monmouthshire' as used in the 1861 and 1901 Censuses. Or - searching the 1881 ...

Can anyone recommend a good site?

Thanks,

John.

It really is hard to get started, but like others I would really recommend GENUKI (http://www.genuki.org.uk) If you have ancestors all over the UK can I suggest that you start with the Scottish ones. Apart from the fact that you live in Scotland and might be able to do some local research, you'll fi...

Unforunately the double year method won't work for me. Scotland adopted 1st January as the first day of the year on 1/1/1600, but continued to use the Julian calendar until 1752. (Despite what many people think, these two things are not related. The confusion arises because both were independetly in...

Hi Jane,

I've set the switchover date to 1752, if that's what you mean; can't find anything else.

Here's an example of what's happening (or not happening)

Since I'm new here my apologies if this has already been covered elsewhere, but if it has I've been unable to find it. In cases where I have a DoB for someone, each time I add a new life event (with a date) FH automatically calculates their age and also indicates any dicrepancy between their reporte...
