I use all flavors of the same place as date required, I then use the AniMap program to assist in creating Chronology entries for county changes, included in each states' Timeline. I also have the timelines for the states of 'Northwest Territories', 'Franklin' and 'Sandwich Islands'. When I have a person who moved to different states, and the counties changed, using example; part of the timelines of Virginia, Northwest, Ohio and Kentucky will be used in one person's report, with the appropriate time/place sources and locations. In each county location, I have put all the changes for that county boundaries, in the location notes. Since each note can print in the place list for the reports, sending the chronology for 20 -30 people, should include the location notes. So I use the location as it was, and the place changes are in the notes. Rich in LA CA

The county was Jones and then became Smith. I have some that have three names and one that has had four. In no case are all records under the same county name so I need to indicate the various names. I have been doing Jones nka Smith but that isn't recognized as a legitimate county.
