I’m probably not doing this the ‘correct’ way but it works for me – if I find a birth on, say, the New South Wales registry office online index, it will give the district where the birth was registered. Assuming the parents went to their closest registry office, I give the birth location as that town plus the word ‘district’ so a birth location might read: Burwood district, New South Wales, Australia. It just shows me that they were probably in that general area at the time of the birth. Of course this also adds “Burwood district” to my locations list, but that doesn’t particularly worry me.

So someone is born (ofcourse always....) but it is nopt entirely sure in what town. If I now would note down in Legacy (e.g.) "London?" or soemthing like "prob. London" then it would enter as another town/city than London. That is not what I want. Is there something similare for names of cities like approximate dates? Or how would you advice? -- Greetings, Rob Vader Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
