United Kingdom for a program and had my bag stolen from me with my passport and
credit cards in it. The embassy is willing to help by letting me fly without
my passport, I just have to pay for a ticket and

I'm sorry but I don't understand your way of thinking. Are you telling us
that if you don't like a FACT, then you are going to ignore it and not
include it in your database? Your personal beliefs have nothing to do with
recording genealogy FACTS!

This discussion just proves that you can't trust anyone elses database.
You must find and verify the facts yourself.

The US also has names for small areas. Some that you'll never find on a

most aren't even documented. Census records do mention some.

I have direct ancestors, Zacharia Rice (1731-1811) and Abigail Hartman
(1742-1789), who had 21 children, all well documented. Guestimating at only
two children each, every twenty years would produce 21,504 people today.
That's all from only ONE family. It's very easy to have a huge database.
I just installed the latest update v. 7.4.0.21 and now my search and report
tabs do not work.
Please advise.
