1) Open the Focus Group window (if it's not already open) and click Remove All to make it empty. 2) Click Add Individual and choose the name or number of the person whose descendants you want to count. 3) Select that person in the focus group. 4) Check the Descendants box and set the number of generations to a large number. 5) Click Add Others. The count shows at the top right of the box, and it includes the starting person and all his/her descendants. -----Original Message----- From: tmg-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:tmg-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Robin Kaspar via Sent: Monday, October 12, 2015 12:41 PM To: tmg@rootsweb.com Subject: [TMG] Number of descendants What's the fastest way to count how many grandchildren and great-grandchildren (and beyond) a person has? (I guess I'm looking for the number of descendants in each generation from the focus person) I don't need a list of names, just a headcount.
