Not at all complicated. See the last example: https://census.ukdataservice.ac.uk/use-data/censuses/forms and https://census.ukdataservice.ac.uk/media/551722/2011-census-form-england-wales-comm-est.pdf Of course, every Census has a different set of forms and demands, so there is limited uniformity of...

Here you go. Enjoy!

Shane, See - http://vcdx56.com/2019/01/vmware-fusion-keyboard-mouse-not-working/ - Hopefully it might provide the solution, but I don't use VMWare so can't test. Apple have upped their system security in recent OS updates, including introducing 'software notarization' whatever that might mean, which...

Alyn, "I agree that an individual appearing on a census record doesn't necessarily prove residence - but for me a whole family group at the same address and no-one else is a different matter." Whilst I do agree that the majority of Census records probably related to normal places of residences for t...

Alyn, It's definitely a life event for me as I have to fill in the forms with all of the information required. Although, in the past it was probably more 'done to' our ancestors rather than by them given the literacy levels! We should also bear in mind that, with the the exception of the 1911 Census...

Mike, I'll believe I'll stick with 'Still born ' as a definite indication that a birth took place.. Although I am not religious, that, for me, fits better alongside the Parish Register entries I've recorded that show stillborn children as being both baptised (but not necessarily named) and buried im...

@Stevie Steve, If you are looking for a single tool to identify 'missing' data then my suggestion would be to look at using a 'companion app' such as http://ftanalyzer.com which has been specially designed for that purpose. A specialist tool designed for such a purpose is, in my opinion, likely to b...

Mike (Loney), And I would respectfully disagree with you, as 'stillborn' literally means that the chid 'never lived outside the womb' i.e. was born dead; and therefore was truly zero years old at both the recorded 'birth' and 'death' events as we can understand such happenings; and it is also how we...

Mike, Yes, I'm aware that we are not talking about a physical printer, but all the Windows 'PDF creators', I've ever come across, including that provided in the FH installer, are programmed and installed as Printer Drivers with the end product actually being recognised as a virtual printer and appea...

The simple answer is NO, Windows Hardware drivers are not supported by WINE. The common 'advice' - https://www.winehq.org - is that the User needs to install/use the Linux CUPS driver software for their specific printer. It's probably beyond the capacity of this 'Forum' to advise on specific methods...

Jim, Not a method of working within FH, but a couple of links that might be of some general reading interest if you're not already aware of them: - https://progenygenealogy.com/Products/Family-Tree-Charts/DNA-Matches - http://www.doublematchtriangulator.com Both of the products referred to can use t...

Probably something to do with the programming logic in Acronis Ransomware Protection, i.e. It accepts that the normal FH.exe is a legitimate launcher, but not if it's been 'adulterated' by extra command line instructions, which could have been added by a malicious software invader.

Bit more checking and I've located a 2nd Desktop Folder see the image below. Jane's Plugin mentioned stores its output in this location but, not surprisingly, it is a 'pure' Windows Command so there is no way to run it. On my system it simply opens the file in whatever Text Editing App recognises th...

Mike, For info. There is a Desktop Folder inside WinApps (see attachment from a Crossover Installation) and the shortcuts created there are useable and work if they are copied to the Mac Desktop. The remaining problem still lies in how long it takes to navigate to the Folder, especially as the locat...

@DavidF Question: "1. Is this a known problem (i.e. expecting too much of Wine) or have I missed something?" I'm not quite sure quite what the question is but the 'problem' would be in converting the Windows Command Line script into something that Linux/MacOS can understand if the intention is to op...

For definitions of Prefix, Suffix and Title see http://wiki-en.genealogy.net/GEDCOM-Tags e.g. Doctor is not a true Title just as Mr., Mrs. M/s or Miss. aren't, although modern usage might suggest otherwise as we are often asked to give a 'preferred title' for written communications. You also need to...

On 'Item 2' and out of general interest I just carried out a search on AlternativeTo for 'Free' Windows ToDo applications https://alternativeto.net/software/todoist/?license=free&platform=windows and there were 92 suggestions and that's not a comprehensive list as more complex applications such as M...

Sorry, but I would argue in the opposite in this area of data management, i.e. It's not necessarily software that imposes unreasonable expectations on users, but possibly a lack of proper consideration of alternatives, and often simpler, approaches. In your example it could easily be dealt with usin...

I'm with Mike on this and use 3 Custom Events: Birth Registration; Death Registration and Marriage Registration which are useful for the further targeting of places and time periods to search for evidence of the actual events indexed. There can, of course, be some downsides to this approach when tra...

That sounds like the programming is designed so that the cursor settles on the first field, which for the vast majority of users will always be the name field. You have apparently upset that programming by replacing that first filed with your CustomID field. Sorry but I think you may have to ask you...

Of course concluding that all children whose mother's maiden surname was the same as theirs were probably illegitimate would be inaccurate. I have numerous examples in my own research of people marrying spouses with the same surname and producing many offspring. Some were close to distant cousins, b...

For me the Cursor is present in the name field when using your 'method 3' so perhaps a visibility/display font/screen issue (i.e. hardware/system related).

There is also the fact that the GRO Indexes don't directly identify specific individuals. They just state that the Birth, Death or Marriage of a person named 'X' was registered within a particular period in time in a specific Registration District. It's applying (processing) that data alongside some...

There was a pop-up notice last night advising that some site features were temporarily down for essential maintenance; and searching also seemed erratic earlier in the day, but now seems to be back to normal (for me).
