Thanks Brian and Dennis for your replies. Brian, shouldn't it be three options on the date. If year only then "in" (in 1876). If month and year then "in [month] of [year]" (in May of 1876). And if all three then "on 12 May 1978"?
Thanks for reporting the known bug. Dennis the .rtf route is okay. I like to send .pdf files to people. This means I have to save to .rtf, then resave as .pdf. Adds an extra step (and good thing I just bought Acrobat).

Legacy uses in for imprecise dates like a month and year or year ie. in May 1978 or in 1876. On is used if there is a day month and year ie. on 12 May 1978. I also checked the incorrect wording for the marriage and there is an an outstanding bug report on this.
