Ross / Ron,
Thank you for your replies. After reading thru the archived messages (and to date I am just dealing with UK entries) this seemed to make sense : I've only been working on census entries .. but it would be nice to know if it should work the same when entering the births, deaths and marriages. Location : Town, County, Country Address : Street address, Town, County, Country (specific to the event I add the Head of the household name) Event Facts : I've added the text for each person and have bolded the individual that I'm referring too. Then when I copy the event to another family member in the same census .. I just bold that person. I just want to be able to print reports that are easy to follow .. nothing fancy. The more I've read the threads - I am not sure I'm doing the right thing. Having I been entering addresses - that won't actually print or show up on any report ?
