In the location field I use the conventional 4 places (or 3 or 5 or whatever if it happens to be a different country than the US). I do not put the names of cemeteries in here nor the street addresses.
I put the street address in as a residence event: Event/Fact: Residence Description: 123 Main Street Date: 06 Apr 1922 Place: Purvis, Lamar, Mississippi, United States The output will be: He resided at 123 Main Street on 06 Apr 1922 in Purvis, Lamar, Mississippi, United States Michele -----Original Message----- From: Ron Ferguson [mailto:ronfergy....@tiscali.co.uk] Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2012 9:09 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC Sorry, Michelle, but can you please explain what you mean?
