That's what I'm thinking. It's best to use the original address not the new one like FTM wants you to do and I never did that. Because you will need the original address for searches. Who really cares what's there now? At least I don't unless I want to do a before and after.
I just have a lot of addresses that have SW and NW (examples) for the same street number and name. I'm very hesitant to change them because they are listed that way in records. DC streets always were a mess and still are. I'm not going to convert my addresses in the Place list to exclude street numbers and names to just city and state. To me that is not useful. -----Original Message----- From: k...@legacyfamilytree.com [mailto:k...@legacyfamilytree.com]on Behalf Of Art Seddon Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2009 11:52 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Moving Street Addresses and Location Names from Location Bill, An entry like this: 3553 SW Adams Street, Peoria, Peoria, Illinois, USA will take you directly to the location that I used to live at in the 1930's. It wont show the house, because it don't exist any more, and your notes can show name changes. The street was called S. Adams then. Art Seddon ----- Original Message ----- From: William H.

I really don't like the mapping feature anyway because, as you said, you can't plot the entire house number and street. I really don't care about the city unless to just verify that it ever existed. I am not going to move the addresses, but already moved a few cemetery names--one for more than 200 people buried there.
