Precisely. I think the conversation long ago passed the point of being about

Now *I'm* confused. I've entered census information for 1850-1930 and
haven't found a single instance where the person of interest couldn't be
entered.
I just checked 1930 and you do have to scroll down to get to this field
in the detail screen -- is that the problem, maybe?

Bob,
You're right. Copying/pasting is the right thing to do here. Yes, it is
redundant to have the census transcription both in the event notes and in the
source detail text. But if it's just a copy/paste which doesn't take too much
time, it's not time totally wasted. The reason why I put it
