Many of my relatives were living in Virginia, areas now West Virginia. In prior software I used, the location could only be shown on a map if you gave the state as West Virginia, historically incorrect. What are Legacy best practices in this situation? Bill Sent from my iPhone On Jul 20, 2014,

The county list isn't currently savvy enough to recognize the change in state borders such as the one you stated. You just have to override it. Consider it as nothing more than a suggestion anyway. For a *very* accurate record of county border updates use the Atlas of Historical County Boundary
