Finding Orphans

Recommended Posts

My TMG database (created via a GEDCOM transfer) has unfortunately not connected all the links correctly.

 

I am quite happy to correct the missing links manually BUT how can I find all the entries that now have no link to any other person.

Could you please provide examples where the GEDCOM import hasn't done what you expected and / or to what "missing links" to other person you are referring to?

I have found that Genviewer from Mud Creek Software to be an excellent tool for locating orphans and strays. Just open its "Islands" tab and you will have a list of your main collection and others not connected (Islands). You can find it at www.mudcreeksoftware.com. It will read a TMG file directly.
