Calling all Genea-Musings Fans:
Here is your assignment if you choose to play along (cue the Mission Impossible music, please!):
1. Does your genealogy management software (e.g, Family Tree Maker, RootsMagic, Legacy Family Tree, Reunion, Heredis, Family Historian, etc.) create a "Fact List" report (or something similar) - a list of the profiles in your family tree that have (or don't have) a specific Fact (e.g., birth, death, burial, immigration, etc.)?
2. If so, run a Fact List to determine which people have a specific Fact (or don't have a specific Fact) and share it with us.
3. Share your results with us in your own blog post, in a comment on this post, or in a Facebook post. Leave a comment on this post with a link to your results.
Here's mine:
I use RootsMagic 7 as my genealogy management program of choice. In the program, I can choose "Fact List" from the "Reports > Print a Report" screen:
On the "Fact List" report settings screen, I can choose the type of list that I want from the dropdown menu on the left of the settings screen:Please comment on this post on the website by clicking the URL above and then the "Comments" link at the bottom of each post.

Thanks to this post, Randy, now I have another project to do! Source my facts!
Here is my post. I need to definitely add more non-vital record facts to my database.

Following your clear instructions, I created a fact list of marriages and used it to focus my research on gaps in my genealogy research. Thanks for this great idea about using my genealogy software! https://climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2020/10/fact-list-reveals-gaps-in-my-genealogy.html
Here's mine...I was surprised to discover that ONLY RM has this specific report...though Family Tree Analyzer can do the same thing, it's not the same as FTM, Legacy, etc...
