Finally, as I find facts, I add to a short biography to notes. It's
more interesting to read that a family moved from one state to another
because the wife was hopelessly homesick, than to read the family lived
in Minnesota, moved to Illinois and then back to Minnesota.
I can choose to print either notes or events or both on a report
depending on the recipient. Like I said labor intensive, but it appeals
to my compulsive nature. I'm sure there are flaws to this system, but I
print few reports and so far it works for me.
That's got to be a good idea because it's one I have recently been
mulling over in my mind!
I probably wouldn't implement it exactly as you describe, but the basic
idea is the same - putting everything into Events but writing a more
flowing narrative in Notes.
Funnily enough I wrote to another LUGger off-list only a couple of hours
ago describing this, but saying I hadn't quite worked it out enough to
"go public" with the idea!
