Wish List: half-siblings in Journal/Ancestor

[diogenes99 0]

The Journal/descendants reports shows half siblings. The Journal/ancestor reports omits them. Besides the asymmetric problem between these two reports, there is real value to showing these half-siblings since siblings and half-siblings lived together and appear in censuses together. The Legacy Family Tree software shows half siblings in their ancestor journal report. I request that the TMG Journal/ancestor report also show half-siblings.

 

There is a good discussion about this here:

And there was interest about a TMG approach here:

Please reply if there s interest in this feature.....

I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO SEE THE FEATURE YOU DESCRIBE. I AM INTERESTED IN PUBLISHING A FAMILY HISTORY OF MY ANCESTORS. I WANT TO INCLUDE ADOPTED FAMILY MEMBERS AND HALF SIBLINGS, BUT THE TMG JOURNAL REPORT DOES NOT PRODUCE THIS DATA. MANUALLY ADDING IN THE INFORMATION TO A TMG ANCESTOR JOURNAL REPORT IS A HUGE, TIME CONSUMING JOB THAT I WOULD LIKE TO AVOID.

I believe the report companion product Legacy Companion by Progeny Genealogy (for Millennium Legacy) shows half-siblings and details in their ancestor reports. I just received an email from Progeny. My hope is that TMG will provide this functionality.
