Family History Programs, Tree Organisation, Presentation / Re: Gedcom files and databases
« on: Saturday 06 September 25 06:24 BST (UK)  »
I managed to solve the problem. Initially, as I was only researching one family, I had never created a database. I had just added people and the file was unknown somewhere. I have placed each family in their own folder, with sub folders for census records etc. I have the gedcom files in each folder. Yesterday I created a database and was asked if I wanted to create an empty database - Yes. Created the database with no records, selected Gedcom - import - told it where it was and it imported the gedcom files into that database. Repeated twice more. Now I have 3 separate databases for the families.

Family History Programs, Tree Organisation, Presentation / Gedcom files and databases
« on: Friday 05 September 25 06:13 BST (UK)  »
Until now, I have been researching only one family. I recently started researching another two. I have downloaded the data from findmypast as Gedcom files. How do I view it in my family tree software ? I have found the option import Gedcom file, which I think will just combine all families. How will I be able to switch from one family to another as easily as opening word documents ?

While researching an individual, I wondered where he was in 1911 - Prison! He was Winchester prison having been discharged from the army. Tuesday March 11th Police Gazette - discharged for misconduct
Lewis Alonzo N 783 1st Lancashire Fusiliers Ignominy date of discharge 02nd March Gosport.
On his service record there is just the note, in confinement tried by DCM and sentenced to 2 years  xxx?? HL and to be discharged from his majestys service with ignominy. 26 06 10, so whatever happened was in India - From 17 10 08 to 22 02 11. I wondered if anyone had a copy of the unit diary for 1st Lancs and were able to look up his offence

I have made a rough clip. Still a few days work left. More things to add, along with the transitions and narration. But it's coming.
