I use the Registration District (with RD) as you do, but ONLY if the exact place is not known. Registration Districts can change and can cover two or more counties. If the village/town/city is known I use that, and may include the Registration Distroct in the source info - after all it is more a descrioption of the source of the record than of the place of the event. -- Keep well, Steve Hayes Blog: http://hayesgreene.wordpress.com Web: http://www.khanya.org.za/famhist1.htm E-mail: sha...@dunelm.org.uk -- LegacyUserGroup mailing list LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com To manage your subscription and unsubscribe http://legacyusers.com/mailman/listinfo/legacyusergroup_legacyusers.com Archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/
