Hello, Is there a more “correct” way of entering data for a person living during American Colonial times? For example, a person living in York, Maine in 1661 wouldn’t technically be correct. Would it be better to enter, York, York County (even though the County probably didn’t exist then), Maine, British Colonial/ North America? Certainly, the USA hadn’t been formed that early. .Any suggestions how others of you might deal with this. Thanks for any advice/input.
