Susan, Thanks for your reply. I think that I may have to do the unacceptable practice of adding street addresses to the towns so I can get it to map correctly. If I can't have multiple locations in the same town to map correctly using the acceptable practice, then I don't see the use of the

Chuck, I doubt it is considered acceptable practice per se. What you could do is change it in the location's short version (I'm forgetting the terminology) back to the town name, and add the address to your event description, or in the address part of the main vital entry (birth, etc.). In my

Chuck, the only way to do this would be to add more locations to your master location list. If you create locations that follow this pattern: Town - Address, County, State, Country, where the dash and Address are your specific spots (like a cemetery, residence, etc.), then you can map a specific
