Many Thanks to you both.

It worked a treat and yet something else learned

Reading the forums I thought I would try the FH Property Box- Census UK tab for individuals NG Edit.fhpbt. To be on the safe side (I thought) I tried it on a test project I have. Quickly deciding that I didn't want it I moved back on to my main project and of course, the Census tab was in it as well...

David, another very interesting take on this. The only record though that I can find for a James Taylor and Elizabeth Sheddon is a marriage in 1796 in Govan which ties in with all the other information on the family that I have as the vast majority is around that location. I'm definitely going to ke...

John, Interesting thought about Marrion being a male name and checking in Scotlandspeople there is actually one registered in 1803 but the area is totally wrong so I am going to have to discount that. Thanks though. Lorna, My mistake calling it a Death Certificate, I of course should have stated tha...

I have hit a brick wall with one of my great (x3) grandfathers and have been trying to find information on his son (my great (x2) grandfather) and his family to get some leads. I’ve searched online about this, in this site for questions about gender and on ScotlandsPeople and although I am pretty su...

Mike,

Thanks for that, it worked a treat.

Mike, Correct, they are all empty. I also used the same format for Birth / Marriage / Death in that I would put the page references in the note field in the citation and the print out on the individual narrative looked like this, Death Statutory Record (Scotland). National Archives of Scotland (Scot...

Mike / Jane, I downloaded the Citation Details query and deleted all the offending “Text From Source” items in the one go and everything is far tidier. Thank you both very much as it saved many hours of work making the changes individually. As far as the Census page references are concerned, I thoug...

Ah....... the citation details query sounds like the one. I'll try the different suggestions over the next couple of days as I am off out now. As far as putting the census pages in the "Where Within Source", that sounds like a good suggestion. As I said before, I've been a bit tied down with the way...

Jane, as my tree will be very basic compared to some I've had no need for plug ins yet so I will have a read at them and give your suggestion a try later on. Thanks

I have an issue that I have just become aware of as I have had no need to run the Sources and Citation report before. I migrated from TMG to FH V6 and then on to V7.0.8. Because of the history of being in TMG the method I use is of a “lumper”, one source many citations. The issue I have found though...

Mike, Yes I did read both of those items but obviously didn't take all of them in :oops: I also seem to have had a blindness to the triple balls as I was looking for three blue dots similar to the dot in the date column. As the triple ball symbol was always there since I upgraded from TMG to FH6 and...

Mike, I tried to take screenshots of the facts tab but couldn't get them inserted into this screen for instance. (Probably me just missing something), but when I copied the two rows in the facts tab and pasted them into here, this was the result. Birth Date: June 10, 1861 Place: 3 Mud Row, Clyde Iro...

Mike, Thanks very much for the reply. At least it looks like I didn’t do anything wrong (so far). The formatting. Basically if I remember it was just tidying up entries in the property box to have consistency in the addresses and occupations etc. I don’t think I changed any Sentence Templates althou...

I transferred my information from TMG into Family Historian V6 and after making quite a few changes to the formatting etc I got it into a state where I was happy with the individual narratives. I have just recently upgraded to V7 of Family Historian but now find the narratives to be different and wh...
