Dennis, You could try Salem, Massachusetts Bay Colony. Same for your Oregon location. "Town name,"Oregon Territory. While that would be accurate, if you are planning to do LDS ordinances, you can plan on it being kicked out of the computer. -- Alice

I have 2 places listed before they became part of the United States & don't know how to enter them. One is "Salem, Essex, Massachusetts, USA" before 1640. Massachusetts was the sixth state to enter the union in 1788. Before that it was a colony under British rule. Salem was settled in 1626, the name was chosen in 1629. Salem was incorporated as a town in 1680 and as a city in 1836. How would I enter this as a location? I also have a town in Oregon before it became part of the USA too.
