Gramps 5.1.6 Mac OS Sonoma Version 14.1.2 I have just started with a new database with only 1 person in it with 6 sources 4 of which are censuses. When I use the forms gramplet, following the video I have edited the source per video and the list does not produce the source as expected in the source…

What I do as far as reference is concerned I strictly use Familysearch for now so I use the following; image# of # sheet # family # line(s) x-x at least this will include somewhere to look.JNELSON

I do have another question. Have you experienced the program crashed after completing the form? I have experienced this and when I tried to look at reports, the pick list is blank firstly and secondly I can not move the darn thing from the upper left corner. Thank you JNELSON

I am still reading the 427 page manual, so at some point I will review each section and go through one category at a time for each of my family member. One point that I do, is for each member on the person editor in the note tab I enter the LDS-ID number so I have at my finger tips. I don’t know how…

[image] JNELSON: One point that I do, is for each member on the person editor in the note tab I enter the LDS-ID number so I have at my finger tips. I don’t know how this will show up later. Alternatively, you could store that in an attribute. “How this will show up later” is the key to makin…

Jnelson, We are the same age and I know my brain is not as sharp as it use to be. The mistake I made when I first started using GRAMPS was to put things in where I thought was a good place for them. Only later I discovered that GRAMPS is very well designed and things work great if you use it as des…

Many thanks for that info Dave as indicated I only use GRAMPS as an organizational tool. My granddaughter asked me a couple of years ago about my family and I had to tell her that I knew very little about that. My parents bounced from pillar to post throughout my life so we lived more or less out of…

Jnelson, I use Ancestry, Find My Past and Family Search for my research. Much of the family comes from the UK. I have a full tree of over 16,000 persons on Ancestry with just over 6,000 persons in GRAMPS. Ancestry is my prime resource currently just because I like the interface. I did start a tree …

Dave I was interested in your comment about End of Line Report I had a note from years ago saying it was of no use to me So I used it again to find out why I wrote the note to myself So I did it based on my grandson So Generation 6 stops with my G grandfather (who was illegitimate) which I wou…

My interpretation of the report use is that it shows you where a connection stops with the individual listed. I use it to workon filling holes in the tree. The problem is always that there are no parents listed for the reported person. I always start with myself or my wife, but you could also choose…

Good afternoon Dave; What I have tried to do is place a marker of some sort in each of the tabs in “PEOPLE” category for example I use FS exclusively, so on the note tab I use this to place the LDS-ID there so I can always refer to it and find any information available. What I don’t know is how the…
