Dick, If those locations are in your master location list there is a tool in Legacy to expand or contract parts of locations (providing you are using the "standard" four location levels) that recognizes the three letter abbreviations for county names in Britain.
Go to View > Master Lists > Location to open the locations list Click on the Options button and select Expand Contract location parts. If you have difficulty or questions at any stage press F1 or use the help button on the screen for more information.
