Re: [LegacyUG] Entering a Move
Georgia, I have used the Place event in this situation: Event: Place: Description: Moved from Mississippi to Texas Date: by 12 Sep 1918 Notes: Evidence for this is the Draft Registration Card filled out by Clarence C Bond on 12 Sep 1918. He listed his occupation as farmer and his employer and nearest relative as J. D. Bond (his father); location Montgomery, Montgomery Co, Texas. Georgia wrote: I have a letter from my mother to her new father-in-law which gives me the only evidence I have of when she moved from Mississippi to California. How would you enter this event? I see that one option offered is Emigration. Would you use this or add an event called Move? I don't have much detail. I am imagining that I would override the sentence and create one that says Rubye moved from Mississippi to California in about 1939. Can someone think of a better way?

Pauline, Do you use the General Notes area to repeat any of this information or to expand on detail or do you just enter it all in the Event Regards Steve Date: Mon, 19 May 2008 22:19:49 -0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Entering a Move Georgia, I have used the Place event in this situation: Event: Place: Description: Moved from Mississippi to Texas Date: by 12 Sep 1918 Notes: Evidence for this is the Draft Registration Card filled out by Clarence C Bond on 12 Sep 1918.

RE: [LegacyUG] Entering a Move
If using a letter, I will often pull a quote or paragraph to enter in the notes section. It gives a human face to the move, and reads nicely in reports.

RE: [LegacyUG] Entering a Move
I have created an Event/Fact called Residential Move where I note a move, whether from one address to another in the same city or to another state.

Re: [LegacyUG] Entering a Move
Georgia, I have settled on using the Address event and make a note from where - to where, with as close a date as I can get. That way it shows up in the Chronology Report which is an important tool for putting together a family or personal history.

Re: [LegacyUG] Entering a Move
Georgia: If the move was within the same country, I would likely make a Migration event and then use the letter as a source. If the move was INTERnational then I would use an Emigration(or Immigration depending on the side of the fence I was sitting on).I would still use the letter as a source. An argument over whether to use Emigration or Immigration could be interesting. Thought anyone?
