The Common Room / Re: My Heritage
« on: Yesterday at 11:21 »
I have spoken to someone who used to work for My Heritage - the company they used to work at was bought by My Heritage - and they left due to the path they are taking.

Also looking at the link posted by Rena, it seems strange that the Chief Financial Officer has a postal address in Dorset, England but have listed their Country of Residence as Israel  ???

Hopefully you are successful in getting your money back, but have heard similar stories to yours quite a few times of >:( them

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Marital Status - Event or Fact

LizzieL & aghadowey

Thank you for your views and that you agree it is a Fact and that the Census is an Event and the Marriage would be the Event - I had started to doubt myself :)

My FTM software has a very large notes page that I can enter all this information freeform, without being restricted by trying to decide whether something fits into a particular category. 

The one I am trying has a Census Entry ' tool ' and adds the Events & Facts, transcribes the details entered for the Census ( so no need to copy from somewhere or manually transcribe ) but has put the Marital Status as an Event which I felt was strange so thought I would ask the community.

Thank You and hope this might help anyone new  :)

Hi LizzieL,

Sorry if it wasn't clear, I mean when we as genealogists obtain a Census and enter the data into our preferred program do we enter the Marital Status as an Event or a Fact ?

The only reason I ask is that a program I am trying enters the Marital Status as an Event but I feel it is a Fact ?

Forgetting about censuses, I would think the marriage ceremony would be the event. The subsequent status of that  couple as "married" would be a fact

Exactly, that is my thinking.

Hi Everyone.

When using a Census to record data, this is classed as an ' Event ' the same as Birth, Marriage, Military Service, Death etc

On the Census you may have the Marital Status listed so would this be classed as an ' Event ' for the person or a ' Fact ' ?

I doubt that, as technology is constantly changing and catches even the best out at time.

You can you try going to Settings > Apps > Tap the 3 dots in the top right > Default Apps > Browser App, and change your current default browser to see if this helps?

If you have not installed polaris office on your Android Tablet then you can uninstall it and then try that ? It seems that when Polaris was installed it changed the default settings somewhere.

Had you tried to open another document and it said you needed an Office suite  - Polaris was then recommended and you installed it.

Sorry if not much help.
