Cary,

I put all the info of the census data in the notes section. then I put in bold the name of the person who's event this is. It is important, to me, to have the whole census info right there when I'm searching. I remember before having to have my copies of the census out all the time to do research. Legacy ended that. Bless them. And then on the chronology page I can see the family progression, who leaves to get married or move west, who is born, etc. This is a huge help when doing research. And sometimes the people we thought were unrelated living there turn out to be related.

That is what I like about Legacy. It keeps its eye on giving help to the research.
Jean

Me too - although I use the Notes section of the Census Event to show each
person's appearance detail only for that person's iteration of the Event.
(Paste the master event then change the name, age, etc for that person who
"Appeared as".....".)  Given the spelling errors etc of Census takers that
works for me.  Linking would mean either having to show everyone's detail
on all the people or none, right?
