[Gramps-users] Family tree name

[Algis K. <aka...@pc...>]

Hi,

I am still "preparing" to enter fairly large amount of data in to a gramps 
data base.  I would like to hear what other people do with Family Tree names.  

As a starter, say I have (I actually do!) children and grandchildren.  So I 
have spouses of sons and daugthers and their children.  They have different  
surnames.  I am making my own extended family record.  

Would you group them all under the same Preferred name > Family name? By 
Family name I mean my surname.

Also, I have records of my parents and grandparents.  Would you group them 
also under the same Family name? 

It seems to me that it would be logical to do group all my extended family 
under one family name.  I certainly would like the charts to show that.

Strictly speaking this is more genealogy question than gramps.  However, it 
relates to gramps, as that is the program I will use.

TIA,

OldAl.
