Family Historian User Group

Hi Mike Using the desktop shortcut to get into the Family Historian it takes me immediately to ONS Istance (2), which is perfect. From there I can go into file, close the current project and click ONS Istance and I get a blank project. Please see screen shot. I get the same for the other 4 projects ...

Mike Apologies abound, slowly my brain is starting to work and clouds are clearing. The only project that works within the C\Users\2chop\One Drive\Family Historian Projects is ONS Istance (2). All the other projects when opened up are completely blank including ONS Istance. I have attached screensho...

Mike Sorry if I have confused you but my Family Historian Projects has always stood alone on One Drive ie. C:\Users\2chop\OneDrive\ Family Historian Projects. Using this Istance (2) on this path all media, etc appears in Family Historian and using the shortcut was fine too. If I use the ONS Istance ...

Well Mike it's all fun and games ;) Thank you, thank you, you have got my ONS back with all the media, etc which is fantastic but, somehow the other two projects showing in the project window 'Joan's Family Tree' and 'Woodcock Family Tree' both singular and (2) are all blank. Have checked the One Dr...

Mike Thank you for your help so far and yes I have some tidying up to do but will do that once I have Family Historian back to working. I checked both media files on ONS Istance and ONS Istance (2) on FH Projects One Drive and all the media is showing. ONS Istance is slightly more up to date. Using ...

Mike thank you again for your reply. I have found the backup that went into the wrong folder and think this is what might have caused the problem. It's size is 741.44KB and found in Documents: Family Historian: Backups dated 1/12/2021. The size matches the /earlier backups in One Drive: Personal: Fa...

Hi Mike Apologies if I have confused you. I too was confused so delved into One Drive settings and discovered (it must have happened on a recent Windows 10 upgrade) that folders on the C: drive, eg. Pictures, Documents, and Desktop are now default on One Drive and cannot be moved or deleted. In othe...

Hi Mike Many thanks for your reply. Went into the project window on FH as suggested and changed the path. The two projects Joan's Family Tree and the Woodcock Family Tree both have (2) as well as the original project. The Istance ONS is singular and on accessit comes up the message 'an error occurre...

Hi I am hoping someone can help me with my problem? I downloaded FH7 at the beginning of the year and was just getting into the new program when I was diagnosed with cancer in June. I was given the all clear earlier this month and am now trying to get back into my various projects on Family Historia...

Many thanks all. All sorted. It was the mini menus from ‘Add to source record’ and ‘Add to citation record’ that confused me and the Baptism (Generic) was definitely what I didn’t want. Tried the ‘empty text’ and was away, thank you Lorna. Mike - definitely a ‘lumper’, always have been and always wi...

I upgraded from FH6 to FH7 in December. Somehow I was able to carry on working inputting generic sources and citations, can't remember how :?. FH7.02 arrived and due to my error was unable to upgrade and reported it to Calico Pie who said I had to uninstall FH7 and reinstall FH7.02. All went well an...

Apologies for not replying sooner and thanks to all who posted. I was completely unaware that OpenStreet map was sort of ‘community based’ but that makes sense and answers my question. I wish I’d known sooner as I probably could have filled in a few gaps. I’m just over half way so will sign up anywa...

I have been busy sorting through place names making sure the markers are in the correct place and thus correcting the geocoding . While doing this noticed the difference between Google maps and the current OpenStreet map on FH and how out of date it is. Is there any plans to update the map in Versio...

Yeah!!! All appears to be working.
Thank you so much Mike.
Exported TNG GEDCOM to website, have checked a few profiles and learnt a few things in the process. Can't be bad.
Thank you again.
Joan

Thanks Mike. Found the named lists and deleted them both. Can't remember doing those!! There were two, "uncat" and one other, which had only one record. In the Extra Options in the plugin, changed the Named List Entry1 option to Remove entirely . On the Basic Options tab, kept the Full Brief mode. P...

Good Morning At the end of last month I updated my ONS Istance website using the export GEDCOM plugin set for TNG. I have done this before with no problems. Checking through the website I noticed that some of the profiles had what looked GEDCOM printing in the Notes space; see David Silas Istance, H...

All done!! Many thanks for your help Mike.

Hi This post was originally on the FH email forum but was asked for screen shots and told it would be better on the FHUG forum. I have in the Project Window of FH two duplicate projects showing the laptop number and they both mirror exactly the 'One Name Study-Istance' project the file I work on. Id...

Hi Mike
Thanks for your reply. Have reported it to Calico Pie.

Hi Mike
I am getting the following message when trying to download the above plug in:

C:\Users\2chop\AppData\Local\Temp\r63jVncB.fh_lua.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read.

Can you help/advise please?

I did have an old version of the plug in but since been deleted.

Jane
Just used the ‘new search’ facility and it works a treat. Love the way it splits the search into years so that you can choose. Thank you Jane

Thanks David, much appreciated.
Cheers
Joan

Thank you all for your replies. You have given me just what I needed.
Regards
Joan

Researching surname Istance ONS

Hi
I have a couple of members of my tree who were declared bankrupt, which I found in the London Gazette and am wondering how to show this in 'facts'. Have any other members come across this and how did you treat it please?

Researching surname Istance (ONS)

Thank you all for your replies. Have signed up with Pharos for their Beginners One Name Study Course which starts in August, which will give me more food for thought. Lots to think about and keep me busy and quiet.
Enjoyed your talk Debbie at the WDYTYA show.
