Hi Tony, I am responding to your second question. I have several relatives who resided at the same residence from the time they purchased their home until their death. What I have done is to use the Master Source and insert a date range. I've just done one this morning:
Event: Residence Date: 1993-1988 The event sentence reads: He had a residence from 1993-1998 of 00000 Street, Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio 44131-5947. In this case my Master Source title is Ohio: Cleveland - U.S. Phone and Address Directories, 1993-2002 . I have others that have the same master source and cover one year or maybe 4 years. I don't see the harm in combining the same data into one source with appropriate source detail. This serves my purpose, however, if you want the event sentence to read differently, then you can fill in the other event fields accordingly.
