I very soon came to the conclusion that there were far more cons than pros concerning entering Census Events as Marriage Events. You are going to have Census Events popping up all over the place: one or other partner being away from home on a Census night, children staying with relatives or growing up and later growing up and moving away. I much prefer to have all one person's Events being kept with that one person. I keep Marriage Events for events which relate strictly to the Marriage - Announcements in the Press, Banns, Wedding Parties, etc. -- 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).
