On #OnePlace Wednesday I am working on my #CareyBay2283 people in my #RootsMagic database. #familyhistory

I'm using RootsMagic for #OnePlaceStudies too.

I teetered between RootsMagic & Family Historian, but have decided to stick with RootsMagic

Some prep work for my next Archives visit. 35 items that contain a mention of St Mary Bourne School.

TOP TIP: Always prepare a list in advance, this has taken me 2 hours!!! Archive catalogues are not the best search engines.

I just finished reviewing Rootsmagic for an upcoming article. So much is not in the free version.

#GenChat RootsMagic seems to get mentioned a lot, because of the ease of attaching research reports to people. I don't know if that's still the case with the newest versions of RootsMagic, though.

#RootsMagic users, you need to upgrade to RootsMagic 10.0.0.4 immediately (it came out yesterday). It's just bug fixes, but there are a few major fixes involving using drag-and-drop leading to corrupting family relationships.

This is what I'm shouting myself today. I love RootsMagic 10.
Can't wait to explore version 11. #genealogy #familyhistory #software

I use RootsMagic & bought Family Historian just so I could create fab diagrams like @juliegfamily.bsky.social, but I’ve also been reading @julzmuirhead.bsky.social’s wonderful Destinations articles about RootsMagic & now I’m torn! And then Ancestry is great for making contact… Difficult decision…

So right! I've been slowly transferring my tree from RootsMagic to FTM manually instead of using GEDCOM so that I can check every fact and reference. Painstaking but feels worth it when I notice a glitch. #AncestryHour

#genchat I'm doing this as someone who has owned Legacy Family Tree, RootsMagic, and currently, MacFamilyTree. I also use Ancestry for my trees. I can't seem to totally vibe with any of them. 😕
Ahoy, #genchat! I am currently building out a Notion research system for my genealogy research. It's primarily for project/research management, but does use relational databases, templates and dashboards to track and organize people, places and resources.

Busy afternoon starting a follow-up article to my RootsMagic V9 Associations for One-Place Studies article in Mar 2024 edition of Destinations. This time the focus is using the tools available for health (V10) with the medical association and what you can learn from it.

Using SQL to Manage Source Templates in RootsMagic Have you ever considered what programming language your genealogy software uses? When I switched from The Master Genealogist to RootsMagic, one of the deciding factors was that RootsMagic utilizes SQL. Since I had experience using SQL to create reports in PowerSchool, this influenced my software choice. Although I made the switch in 2016, it wasn’t until recently that I began using scripts to make significant changes to my database.

I’m planning to use a CET tree for my #OnePlaceStudy, & sync it with RootsMagic

Looking for some #Genealogy help. Starting up again after a 20 year break. Using #RootsMagic for #GenealogySoftware. How do people use sources and citations with their family histories?

Earlier this week, the YouTube channel "Write Your Family History with Devon Noel Lee" put out a great video on using #RootsMagic and its Narrative Reports to write a #genealogy story.

I'm in a subscription blackout at the moment so I've been verifying my tree whilst I manually transport it from #RootsMagic to #FamilyTreeMaker. My referencing skills have really improved during the Strathclyde PgCert! #SIGS #GenHour

RootsMagic clicks with my brain less than it used to, but I’ll persevere! I’m a great believer in using whatever program makes sense to your own brain #GenHour

Spending a few quiet hours in my husband's #RootsMagic tree. Using the details from #records in the fab RM web hints to hatch, match and dispatch some forebears.
