Was just wondering if you'd noticed Roles in 2012.<br /><br />RosemaryRosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07230436754902585388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431320127509797635.post-50347218528800328052011-09-16T11:59:00.346-04:002011-09-16T11:59:00.346-04:00Rosemary,

In fact, I am trying to track a family group in a specific location. I don't know the connection, yet, but here are our options for what you want. I may do a blog post about it.<br /><br />You can create a Custom Fact, say Witness (for a marriage), enter the Date, Place, and a description, like Mr & Mrs (names) Wedding and cite your source.<br /><br />Doing so, will let you use the Filter feature OR the Citation Usage to see who all was a witness based on either the Witness Fact, or the Wedding document used for that citation. Remembering that you can have Unrelated people in your file.<br /><br />I put a Task (ToDo) List for those Unrelated people so that I can remember who they are.<br /><br />As always, we have the ability to provide Feedback to the Developers in the Help Menu, Online Help Center, within the Family Tree Maker program, to request new features.<br /><br />Good luck,<br /><br />RussCousin Russhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00326890362591254874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431320127509797635.post-78369665707144574932011-09-16T11:49:21.581-04:002011-09-16T11:49:21.581-04:00Thanks.

In the late 19th & early 20th century one didn't travel 3000 km to witness a marriage, particularly if that involved train, ship, and train to get there and there are no reliable passenger lists on the ships.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07230436754902585388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431320127509797635.post-28154654799249871452011-09-16T07:30:30.479-04:002011-09-16T07:30:30.479-04:00Rosemary,
