Since people can have more than one in a lifetime, I usually add it as it is from the census info as one event called Residence i.e. date/location/occupation. That obviously wouldn't work if you want to separate out the occupation in which case it needs to be a separate Event, spanning whatever the dates are. How many times do we know, though, what exactly a person was doing between answering questions for census-takers? ----- JL JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog
