Today's blog post is brought to you by the letter G.
Isaac Daniel Gensel is my 4th great grandfather{green box in image below} and he married Mary Emma Long on 18 Oct 1864. Isaac and Mary had 11 Children; 9 boys and 2 girls.

Family view for Isaac Daniel and Mary Emma Long Gensel. |
When I was looking at Isaac's Individual Information screen I notice that there are some Events/Facts missing. You can see where there is information marked with a red arrow in the image below.
There should be census information on Isaac and his family from : 1860, 1870, 1880, 1910, and 1920. I created a To Do List item for each of the census' that I need to search for{see image below}. Now when I get a free moment to do some research all I have to do is view my To Do List in Legacy to get started.
So far in this A to Z Blogging Challenge I have been able to clean up my database, add new information to my database, and fix some mistakes that I have found. In March I blogged about reviewing your data {Cleaning up Legacy Using Reports} in your database and this challenge has given me another way to do that. My To Do Lists are getting updated and data is being cleaned up. Now I just need a challenge to help clean up my sources! I also learned some new information about my Gensel's but I am going to save that for a future blog post.
Tomorrow takes us to letter H...I have no idea what I am going to do for that! {Putting my thinking cap on...any suggestions??}

Pulling up Isaacs's Chronology view confirms there is missing information.
