Configuring columns in FamilyRecords

I am trying and failing to create a column in the FamilyRecords view which will show the "Husband's Relationship to Current File Root". I have tried adapting the =Relationship(FileRoot()) with no success. I have managed to list the RelationPool using =RelationPool(%FAM.HUSB[1]>%) but I'm stuck, have...

Re: Error Message after installing v7.7.0

Hi Nick,

I realise that but thought an image may be helpful.

I only suggest Dynamic Locking as something that could interfere with an ongoing process, though probably AS installation is fast enough for that not to be an issue.

Re: Error Message after installing v7.7.0

I wonder if either of these two settings may cause a problem:

The first might be an issue but am not sure.

I have just switched the second on, to see what happens next install.

Re: Option to not create an image cache

The 'remnant' ThumbCache.data files listed by David are probably simply explained... The first one is embedded in the FH installation files for the Family Historian Sample Project, so not a 'remnant' at all. The second is embedded in the actual Family Historian Sample Project itself, so also not a ...

There are English newspapers on newspapers.com, 16 covering Essex 3 of which go past 1995. Not sure though how these would be referenced in Ancestry hints.

Re: Look up missing burials on findagrave?

Re: Working with Places

When working with places, in the Place List dialogue box, top right is an Edit... button, which is slightly misleading, as it does not take you to where you can Edit the place, but simply opens the View/Edit Place Details dialogue box, where you have to click another Edit... button, to open the Edi...

Re: Robert Brent M.D. (1819-1872)

The signatures of Robert Brent and Esther Head are similar in each marriage. Those for the bride are less convincing. When did he qualify as a MD. According to the LMA catalogue P85/MRY1/535 is a Register of Banns with some statistics which mentions licences at the back.

Are the two marriages the same denomination? Can you evidence of two daughters with similar names.
