Michele, For my Great Grandmother I entered a 1930 census event under her info and the 1940 census event under her and her 2nd Husbands marriage. I then went to her and had her highlighted and changed to Chronology tab and both events show up 1930 and 1940 Apr 4 is the Census Event listed with the details that I put in the note section. Have you checked your chronology options? You have to put a check mark to show the events for both sections. Russ

If you enter it as an event under the person, every census they appear in will show up on the chronology/timeline. Doing it your way will mean only the census records after they married will show up.

If one of them dies or they split and they are single again, then subsequent census are placed in their individual event. Its much easier for me to follow them. nancy On 4/6/2012 4:26 PM, Bob McEwan wrote: Thanks to Paula and Russ for agreeing with my placement of the census under marriage event. I feel that if the event contains both husband and wife that's where it should be.

Has anyone found this problem.
