If I *have* Sources for a location then I enter it in the usual way. I find entering <Cheshire> or <Newcatle-upon-Tyne> gives me a quick and easy prompt that I don't really know where the Event occurred, but that is probably the best place to start looking. I am not bothered about "messing up my Location list" because again it is an obvious reminder to me that I have a location that needs verifying and it's easy to look up to see who the location is attached to. It's not something I need to use very often, either. If I only know the country or county where someone is born then I just enter that much information in the Location field. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
