Thank you, Kathleen (Katie) Todora
Thank you for responding. I will send you an email, as I would love to see your information. Any suggestions on where I might find Kentucky Moores?
Kate, I don't seem to have any Moores in Maryland. Most all are in PA and a few in Canada (left when the revolution occurred) I'll be happy to send you any or all of the Moore info. if you wish. But please take this to
e-mail I can't figure out how to even post here most of the time (not sure if this is working tried once and I think
it disappeared) If I click "add comment and it disappears again :-(

Lew,
I am interested in a Moore who lived in Baltimore County, MD or thereabouts in the mid to late 1700's. He died about 1777 leaving a wife, Susanna and a daughter, Elizabeth (b. 1777). I am trying to find out if his wife, Susanna, is Susanna Dornbach/Turnpaugh of Baltimore.
Thanks,
Kate
Hi Lewis,
Just saw your answer here. I don't know why GW didn't notify me by EM. Anyway, I decided per advice of someone that it's not a good idea to store your pictures on C: under Legacy. The issue I have is I am always moving things around on my computer for various reasons so I set up a folder just for Legacy under Documents. Then you can go into Legacy and direct it to find your pictures (under Options) in the that folder as long as you don't intend to move it. Essentially, I am making copies of everything and leaving the originals where they were.
Another reason I do that is I am in the process of writing more books and prefer keeping things separate, if that makes any sense to you. Of course another thing you have to be sure of is that you have plenty of space on your computer to have a lot of files like that.
I have a lot of photos and graphics along with other records on people so I have several folders set up for different families and make sub-folders (sub-directories) within those for individuals. If I don't have too much information on one person than I might just set up a general folder by surname. I don't work that much with Legacy anyway and keep my main family trees on Ancestry.com. I have both Legacy and Family Tree Maker and the new Version 11 is excellent as you can download your whole tree, including graphics. I use Legacy mainly to back up my files and I like some of the reports and do use some graphics and photos that I have set up in the folders as previously mentioned. At least the folder idea is how I do it; otherwise, it gets totally unmanageable as you say by dumping it all into one subdirectory. Others may have more ideas on the subject but that's my input. Thanks for writing.
Hmmm! I keep getting confused here. "the comment back" doesn't work so I guess this is the only way to see
if it works.
Sara the questions have to do with what sort of pictures you put in the folders on the Legacy and how you organize
them. I have mostly jpg's of census pages and typed up copies Obits. and a few marriage/divorce pages from
state web sites in jpg form and only a very few "photographs" of people. So in the Legacy program how to
separate them and link to the people. I just did some of the censuses an just put them all (they were all 1930)
in the folder pictures and linked each to all the persons that were on each census. But I can see that by the
time I get all of the material I have in that way it will be completely unmanagable.. So I'm looking for some
idea from someone that has already solved the problem. Does that make sense ?
Lew
Hi Lewis,
You left a message on the Legacy page to contact you regarding questions you have. Could you post them here on your page? Maybe I can answer them on here.
The comments should be in date order with the latest date being at the top. Which group are you looking at?
