Hello All,
Another 2 cents worth here, I am part of this BETA group,
non-LDS.
I think you'll like what you see when it's released, VERY
easy to navigate through, which is a desire we all want.
Right now in the early stages, not much for UK records,
but US records are a real gem.
The Roman calendar went from March 1st month through
February 12th month. That is why September is 7,
October is 8, etc. so it is accurate. In the American
colonies at the time, they used the month number, as
above. The Romans didn't renumber the months, Pope
Gregory and the protestant rulers did,
Jackie,
Thank you, but that site just appears to be someone's opinion.
It assumes that because the "year" began in March, that the
month numbering must have done so as well.
Please see what I wrote in response to Cathy.
Peter.

Hi Cathy
I did say that I was aware of double dating and the phrases "Old
Style" and "New Style" ...
But I do not see why given that ALL calendars that were printed/
written from that period always start with January and proceed
to December. They do NOT start with March and go to February.

This is not true at all. None of it.

I agree with Ron entirely - I've never seen it otherwise in England.
However, it would be useful if a possibility existed to present a
sentence as Title; First Name; Surname; nee Maiden Name, also Adopted

You need an uptodate version of OOo (I think 2.2 or later) which contains Base.
To open in Open Office, firstly create a copy of your .fdb file and change it
manually to .mdb; you will get a warning about changing file names but ignore
this.

I have had to deal with the Quaker issue. The oldest Quaker settlement in
the US is right here in Georgia (Wrightsborough). The Quakers of
Wrightsborough left behind excellent records. They followed the old month
system well after 1752.

I'm glad someone pointed out the difference in methods of showing the maiden
name between the US and the UK. I am now especially aware of this
difference. This is great.

In your case, there may be a way to get partway there today by doing two

Barbara,
Whilst it is possible to find who died/was buried in specific locations I don't
think it is possible to search for all locations where these events happened.
I haven't looked but I think it should be possible using Access/Open Office.

Robert,
This would find Individuals that have a Death Place, not a list of
those locations.
Like Ron, I don't think it can be done in Legacy.
The closest would be to export people with a death place to a new
file and do a location report but that would be messy picking out the
death places.
