Source Driven Genealogy and Data - Forum post by lkessler in Feature Suggestions - 24 Feb 2013
Theresa,
Thank you for excellent ideas. Your points are worthy of more than an answer here at the forum, so I've made a blog post with my reaction to your one-place requirements.
In the meantime, I do know of one program that is used by one-name study people that may be something closer to what you need. It's ...

Source Driven Genealogy - Blog entry by lkessler - 24 Feb 2013
Theresa (Serenity2006) contributed a detailed and notable post on the Behold User Forum. It prompted my thinking and is some new thinking that I’ve not encountered before. I encourage you to read it now. Theresa is doing a one-place study. She needs software that can do source-based data entry. She needs ...

Importing Two Ged Files - Forum post by lkessler in Feature Suggestions - 24 Feb 2013
Theresa,
I doubt I will be implementing a side-by-side feature. My current thoughts are that I'll probably be mixing the data together, with events for each person ordered by date, and allowing you to highlight the data from the different GEDCOMs with a different background color.
You would not want to use any ...

Home Again - Blog entry by lkessler - 24 Feb 2013
After 3 wonderful weeks down south of the equator for the first time, across the international date line for the first time, and enjoying summer and days longer than 12 hours in February for the first time, after a total of 18 gruelling hours in the air, I’m back home again. Despite returning to snow on the ...

Unlock the Past, Day 8 - Blog entry by lkessler - 20 Feb 2013
The last day of our onboard genealogy conference. I woke up early, and went to the top deck of the ship and did what I call the Voyager of the Seas marathon. I went through all the decks and all the public spaces, both inside and outside, starting with decks 13, 14 and 15 and working my way down to deck 1. It ...

Will,
For you and for anyone else who reads this, the presentations are up at: http://sdrv.ms/XZJKN2

Unlock the Past Cruise, Day 7 - Blog entry by lkessler - 17 Feb 2013
At 9 am, Paul Milner’s talk was about “Occupation and Guild Records”. Paul always talked to a room-full of interested listeners. At 10 am, we all (145 of us) assembled on the majestic staircase of our ship’s main dining room for a group picture. Below is a picture of the proof, since I don’t ...

On Day 6, I caught Shauna Hicks' presentation: “Warning, Warning: Tips & Tricks to Avoid Family History Mistakes”. At 11 am, I gained further knowledge about writing an interesting family history with Carol Baxter’s talk on “Writing Narrative Non-Fiction”. My wife and I shared a nice lunch ...

Unlock the Past Cruise, Day 5 - Blog entry by lkessler - 15 Feb 2013
Back at sea, sadly heading back for Sydney, meaning the cruise is half over. I have no talks to give today. My remaining 5 talks will be two tomorrow, two Sunday, and the last one on Monday. So today I had a chance to listen and learn. As usual, I wasn’t there early enough for the 9 am session. But I caught ...
