Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
Canada has Provinces that use Counties and Provinces that use Jurisdictions or Regions, and some use a combination or Districts with a number (These are nearly impossible to find without a legal document most of which don't include it anyway). What I always try to do is use the most complete form I can making sure that the city/town is in the correct place, followed by the county if there is one, the province, and country. I use commas where a designation is either non-existant or unknown. Thus the city of Edmonton in the Province of Alberta, would look like: Edmonton, , Alberta, Canada if it were after 1905 and Edmonton, , Alberta, British Empire OR Edmonton, , Alberta, , since Alberta wasn't part of Canada prior to this. Other Provinces are similar and Counties change. B.C. doesn't use counties, Alberta uses a combination depending on where and when, Canad didn't exist before 1 Jul 1867 and some provinces joined later. It can be confusing. As for Washington, DC, I use: Washington, , District of Columbia, United States unless the time frame was when it had a county then I enter the County instead of the place keeper , . I always spell out United States never using USA. But I also don't use it prior to the date that a State was part of the union. I always attempt to keep all locations as they were at the event time. Took me 3 weeks of constant work to fix all my locations the best I could. Bev.

RE: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
Until 1889 there wasn’t a County in England called London. The only place to officially have the title London was the City of London – the square mile. A very small area from the Tower in the east to Fleet Street in the west. Everywhere else was part of Middlesex (north of the Thames), Surrey (south of the Thames), Essex or Kent. Then in 1889 a new County was created administered by the London County Council and took in quite a lot of what had previously been in Middlesex, Surrey and a small part of Kent. Middlesex, Surrey and Kent continued as smaller counties bordering onto London. This continued until 1965 when a new entity Greater London was created that took in the existing County of London, together with most of the rest of Middlesex, more of Surrey and some of Kent, Essex and Hertfordshire. At that point silly things happened, such as Staines that had always been in Middlesex moved into Surrey and Kingston which housed the County Hall for Surrey was in Greater London. Sadly, Middlesex doesn’t exist now as a County. It’s name only really existing in terms of Middlesex County Cricket and the like. But, please NEVER suffix a county name with the word County (ie Middlesex is just that, not Middlesex County). The only exception in Great Britain (and the UK loves exceptions!) is County Durham. And please don’t attempt to squeeze British place names into a four field format.

Can we please be clear that at one time London was part of the county of Middlesex, and not the other way round. As there is no longer a Middlesex County Council technically it no longer exists. However, it is still used to describe an area and for post code (zip) purposes.

Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
I would advise you to think carefully before you do something which you feel is not right for you. I do not have a problem along the lines you suggest, perhaps because I rarely have a full address for a birth or death, and I do not have residences visible in Family (if it is possible - I haven't looked), or perhaps I may not consider it a problem, as you may do. As I have said many times I do things in a way that suits me, and the applications which I use, hopefully, my thoughts may encourage others not to think inside boxes designed by others, but they are not recommendations. Just as I read about other ways of doing things, and then make my own mind up, I encourage others to do the same.

Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
I'm about to launch into England locations. Can hardly wait. My theory, so far, is to fill in the 4 blanks as applicable and either leave the rest or put it under the Address. For instance, in English locations, there's often a parish in a city. I put the parish under Address. How this prints out in reports I have yet to see. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 9/7/2012 5:37 PM, Pat Hickin wrote: There's a somewhat similar problem in Virginia, where for 90 or so years we've had independent cities that are not in counties.

Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
I know what you mean. London is a rather huge place. Part of Middlesex IS outside London or at least was 50 years ago. I only know that because I used to live there. Well, it gets laborious. First you have to look at the date and then figure out where the location was in which part of London and what it was called at that time. I wish my relatives hadn't lived there. Some days I'm more in a mood to be finicky than I am on other days. I'm leaving London for a finnicky day. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 9/7/2012 9:12 PM, Pat Hickin wrote: Great idea, Elizabeth, thank you!! JLB, How do you handle it when you've got something like London, which I think is in more than one county? I've got some London, Middlesex County locations. I think part of Middlesex is outside of London. Also, as in the US, I imagine some Middlesex County locations have a London address even though they're outside the corporate limits of London.

Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
It may not be right but it depends on the time frame you are discussing. Early on, D.C. had two counties - Washington and Alexandria - and encompassed a portion of Virginia. In that case you probably would have treated it like any city and state with reference to the county. Later - about 1846 - it became one county and one district after Alexandria was given back to Virginia. Until 1890, the census bureau counted the area as the City of Washing, City of Georgetown and anything unincorporated as Washington county. Washington county technically ceased to exist in the early 1870s when it was pulled into the city of Washington. I believe what you see now has been developed to use the four place holders - but technically isn't correct.

Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
All of my D.C. folks are very early on - so I get to use the county system. While it looks odd, what was suggested might work - or perhaps leave the city blank - put washington where you normally would put the county - and then the district and country.

Re: [LegacyUG] proper format for Washington, DC
Sorry - I didn't realize you were not in the United States. The District of Columbia is a federal district that contains the city of Washington - but for all practical purposes the district for addressing is treated like you would a state. So you have two choices in my mind - the one you were given or a (blank), Washington, District of Columbia, USA.
