Re: [LegacyUG] USA County Verification

I thought I answered this but I guess it didn't go through. When someone
writes in and asks me to check a date I use a variety of things, Ani-Map,
FamilySearch Wiki, Redbook, Handybook and official county websites.

Re: [LegacyUG] USA County Verification

2017-04-21 Thread Sherry 
I worked on the generation of the USA County Verifier and can attest that
several sources were used, primarily Handybook and Kane's "American
Counties" (particularly for "ghost counties" which no longer exist) along
with various websites. When the spelling for a county was in conflict
(LaSalle vs La Salle), I used the official spelling as found on the county
web page or state archives. There were even times when I contacted county
officials to confirm that the spelling was correct.

I believe the dates are taken from a variety of sources. I do know the 
person who maintained the county lists when I worked for Millennia used 
official records wherever possible; like official state county history 
records, county web sites etc.


Neither she nor I work for Millennia any more so I cannot comment on 
current practice.

The country verifier is correct. There is no such place as Orleans Parrish.



I’d recommend you try a spell checker first.



Parish is spelled with only one R. J



New Orleans, Orleans Parish, Louisiana, United States works just find.

My grandson was born in:

New Orleans, Orleans Parrish, Louisiana, United States



The county verificaton report gives me an error that there was no County called 
Orleans Parrish



When i enter New Orleans, Orleans, Louisiana, United States it does not 
generate the error



It is supposed to be Orleans Parrish not Orleans County.





What should i do?
