Mark The spelling of his middle name (his mothers maiden name) has been the same for the two centuries I have been able to track them back, so I am quite sure the spelling on my wife's birth certificate is wrong. I think the problem was that her mother registered the birth and wasn't quite sure abou...

Thanks Helen that makes perfect sense. I edited my post have you a view on the other part?

Adrian There's a whole can of worms been opened with this information. Second marriages, probable murder and a few other things, but that is for his daughter to deal with at the moment. I do know he came back from Canada with his grandparents when he was very young, so he may have saw them as his pa...

Hi, I have just found out my step fathers parents are not who he said they were on my mother and his Wedding Certificate. His daughter only found this out recently as well, as he had never told anyone that who he passed off as his parents were actually his grandparents. My question is, what is the b...

Helen,

Is this the information you are looking for?

This is the citation as was produced by DEA- 2022-02-11.png 2022-02-11 (9).png And finally this is the screen showing the two citations added by the DEA to the mothers name 2022-02-11 (10).png Now this is the information that is available on a Birth Certificate from Australia from 1962, I have just ...

The continuation from my last post-
The Records Window after DEA
The Focus Window after DEA

I'll add Citation in next post

I have started another new project, just to make sure nothing I have did before is affecting the resultsPretty much the same as screenshots above but here goes again- 2022-02-11 (2).png This is me entering data using DEA 2022-02-11 (3).png This is the error that pops up when I click okay 2022-02-11 ...

Hi Helen, Is the updated DEA in the first post in the (18283) Topic? If yes, then no it doesn't seem to work for me. I entered my wife's birth and it didn't enter her mother in the Focus window, it does enter her details in the Records window but not in the Focus window. It also shows her father in ...

Just a suggestion as I am not sure how Ancestry works with wildcards, could you not enter Northampton* and let Ancestry look for all variations of Northampton even misspellings eg shir or shre I may be sending you wrong information for Ancestry but maybe worth a try.

Helen Is there a reason you're not reverting to the (UK) version? Kind of don't understand what you are asking. I said that I had accidently clicked (ANY), so there wasn't an issue with (UK), but I also said that the issue that I reported with the error when inputing using (ANY) would be an issue wh...

Hi Helen The problem is that the (ANY) DEA doesn't add the mother to the focus screen when it enters the information and fires up this error message ...

Helen, (UK) DEA working fine, it was the (ANY) DEA that isn't working. I accidently picked the (ANY) and thought I had used the (UK) one, hence the initial confusion (My fault). My problem as I mentioned is that when I go to add my wife there will be a problem as she is born in Oz, but at least I kn...

Last one I just started a new project to make sure it was nothing to do with my project and this time it added the father and some other information, but still nothing for the mother. Hope this helps

Some more screen shots

Helen I know an old gypsy woman who does online crystal ball repairs if that is of any good to you :lol: 1 No (see below) 2 Yes I have to appologise I clicked on the wrong DEA I picked Record Birth (Any) but the issue will still be there when I enter my wife's information for her birth as she is bor...

I have been away from FH7 for a little while and when I went back to it and tried to enter a source using a template I got the following message. ...

Mike my suggestion would be a simple 'known as' button that changed the view from the name given at birth to put in the known as name (if their is one) in its place and back again. I thought I did when I said view and (if their is one), but obviously not. Helen The problem for me with your suggestio...

It is not a one-click button but it is quite easy to swap the Primary Name and an Alternate Name (AKA). Click the more (+)... link next to a person's Name in the Property Box. In the Names & Titles dialogue select the Alternate Name you want to make Primary and click Make Primary . That swaps it wi...

Helen and a rethink on layout and the ability to change it easily That was why i wrote this in my post, my suggestion would be a simple 'known as' button that changed the view from the name given at birth to put in the known as name (if their is one) in its place and back again. You mention Deadnami...

Surely this is just badly designed software and badly thought out idea's. It would surely make sense to have what you are known as now as the main name on the main page of any software with names before either below or attached. I say this because when talking to relations about other relations, the...

Wow didn't realise this information wasn't available on English wedding certs, All of the wedding certs I have are scottish and this information was already on them I just spotted the surnames of the mothers are shown by their married names, and not their maiden names. GRO missed a great opportunity...

That was why a said "soon to be unsupported" after all it is only 10 month's after the Onedrive app is dispatched. I really think this is Microsoft just trying to get peeps to upgrade to their more secure version of Windows by giving them less goodies if you stay on the older version.

I think I would be more worried about having an unsupported and soon to be unsupported version of windows on my PC, than whether it was going to sync OneDrive. As you say, you will still be able to use OneDrive online to store your data and use it across your devices. Best option in the long run is ...

the start menu can be put back to left if wanted. Have experienced no issues.

I know that but it still takes 2 clicks to get to All Apps.
