Thanks for your responses. Looks like I am going to pull out the placeholder commas and just go ahead and post in what I know. I really don't have to worry about mapping features as the places where a number of relatives were born are not in the database. You won't fin the small villages in there as they only go down to the Township level. Rosseau, Hekkla and the others all have to be manually mapped which fortunately I can do and have done.

It hasn't caused any problems for me but I don't know what impact it might have on mapping or some other Legacy features. If you really want to stick with the 4-part system though, you could use *either* the village or the township rather than both, putting the missing element in your notes, or you could call it Rosseau Village Foley Township (no comma) or even Rosseau Village in Foley Township. Either one would keep it all in the city position. Parry Sound would then go in the county position.

However I have some locations in Northern Ontario that are 5 sections not the standard 4. An example is Rosseau Village, Foley Township, Parry Sound District, Ontario, Canada. I have gone through about 20 pages of archives and haven't seen too much about that type of formatting. Any suggestions on this without screwing up the current system presets?
