Hello Leon and list May I give an example of the type of entry I wish to make
Grandfather born 1899 at 18 Worth Street, Collyhurst, Manchester, Lancashire, England
If I enter this completely in the location field for his "born" entry then enter the details again in the rolodex for birth address I get double entries in the Chronology and FGS
So I thought that I would enter in the Born location, Manchester, Lancashire, England
THEN in the rolodex birth address just put 18 Worth Street, Collyhurst
However I then get a mix of both that says Born at Manchester, Lancashire, etc
then "lived at 18 worth street, Collyhurst" in the various reports
How would others enter this data
Regards
John
Manchester

John:
Using the Rolodex just for living people could be a best practice that you
want to follow. Personally, I use it for much more than just living people.
As examples,
1. Location of a Source repository 2. Location of a Church (where married) 3. Location of a Cemetery 4. Location of a Hospital
So, in general, I use the Rolodex for the following: 1. People's address (living) 2. Locations - almost any type
The address/Rolodex was probably originally developed and used to print Name
Tags for family reunions or gatherings. In that case, you would only use it
for living people.
Remember in almost any genealogy software, you can use the basic features for other things.
