Not England, either "New England, British North America" or "British North America" There is also a New England, Australia, so just New England can be ambiguous. You could also use the Colony name, an example is New Haven Colony which merged with Connecticut in the 1660s and became New Haven, New Haven Co., Connecticut Colony, British North America. Of course, I don't always do it that way, but I think that would be more historically correct. That does not work with the Geo Locator database. Regards, Steven C. Perkins -- Steven C.

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Location Database - Updates
I think Sherry has gone home, so I will help tonight. What we must do is use the current name for the location, capture the L/L, then in a persons input screen, change the location name to what it was at a given time. Then the L/L will be attached to two same/different places (sic). If you change it in the master list the change is universal. I have some places with over six different names (same L/L).

I have a question on using the Geo Location feature. I understand when entering in the "Place/location" we should always allow for 4 spots and separate each with a comma -- so in the USA it would be: city, county, state, country. I also understand that if we don't know one of the fields that we leave it blank but still put in the comma for a place holder. Then we can click on the little blue earth icon and it will do a search for the location and put in the latitude and longitude. My question is how does that work when the name of a location changes over time? Let's take the town of Derry, Rockingham, New Hampshire, USA. If I have an event that happens today and I put this in the place/location and hit the Geo Location then it works beautifully giving me the latitude and longitude. And, if I don't know the name of the county, after hitting the Geo Location icon it will do a search and tell me the county is Rockingham. However, the town wasn't always called Derry -- it used to be "Londonderry". And before it was "Londonderry" it was "Nutfield". It was in 1722 that the name was changed from Nutfield to Londonderry. And at that time there was no United States -- and the county wasn't Rockingham. It wasn't until 1769 that there was the county of Rockingham. I also know that we should record place names as they were at that time. So, what should I be putting in the place location for the different times? And, if I'm entering the place for -- say 1700 would I put "Nutfield, , New Hampshire, England"? And if I do, how do I get the Geo Location to work for that that place/time?

RE: [LegacyUG] Geo Location Database - Updates
When you go to the Master Location List and select a location, you can Geo-code that location. If you're in the Map of Places for... window, click on the Resolve button to bring up the Master Location List where you can code the location. The Geo-code feature in the Master Location List codes according to what Bing (was Virtual Earth) has on file and doesn't use the Geo Location Database. Thanks for using Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Location Database - Updates
Gene, I did not indicate in my original post that I could update the legacy database...I listed where you could find an updated Geo Location databasesee post below. I will not comment any further on this subject as it is not appropriate for the list. I suggest you do the same. Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Location Database - Updates
Gene, I was going to let all this pass, but I will refrain from typing what I am thinking. I guess my original post was not as explanatory as it should have been. I use the data from the file I receive as a separate reference database when locations cannot be found within the Geo-database incorporated into Legacy. AGAIN, I use it as a separate reference database. And if you are not comfortable with using database software, this is probably not a viable option for you. But I often see listers referring to manipulating their data in Access, so I would guess those people would find this option as a benefit. I am sure that there is a way to update the actual Geo-Code file in Legacy, but I am not a coder or programmer and don't want to do anything that might effect proper operation of my Legacy software. You say that you were "rewarded with more than 33MB of useless text files", if so, you did not follow the directions properly. To use the link I provided for an update to the listing of the Geo-Database here are the steps I followed; Go to http://www.geodatasource.com/cities-free.html Click on download full version, make sure you are on the FREE page titled, "GeoDataSourceT World Cities Database Free Edition" If you are already a registered user of their site, log in and you will be directed to the download page. If you are not a registered user, you must register. There is NO Charge. After you register you will receive an email confirming your account is active and then log in and go to the download page. You can also go to the "my account" page and at the bottom of your page will show you what files you are entitled to, in my case, only 1 "GeoDataSource-Cities-Free.Text.zip" Download the FREE edition zipped file. You can then import that file into any database management product. To quote from their site; "SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL or other database software application capable of importing 2,248,843 records from a standard tab-delimited ASCII text file and sufficient disk space to import the database " Once you have imported the records into a database, you can use the search function to find cities. I do not know how old the Legacy version 7 Geo-Code database is, but in about half of the instances where I do not find a city in Legacy, I find them in GeoDataSource. The other half are usually misspelled or names that no longer exist. I was merely pointing out as a reply to a comment that the "Legacy database has never been updated" that this is what I use. GeoSourceData updates their downloadable free list every month. I have NO affiliation with that company nor any connection to the product. I hope that this can be of great help to those Legacy users who need a more current reference lookup that what Legacy provides. (Ron, Thank you for comment "I strongly suspect that Jay misunderstood the context of my response to the OP and was merely trying to suggest somewhere were updated lists are available." That was exactly the intention.) -- From: "Gene Young" Sent: Saturday, August 08, 2009 5:32 PM To: Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Location Database - Updates ronald ferguson wrote: Date: Sat, 8 Aug 2009 13:08:48 -0400 From: n2...@cfl.rr.com To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Location Database - Updates 1familytree wrote: Mike, I was simply listing a url where you can acquire FREE an update for the Geo -Code database.
