That is how I do it.

In my family, eight brothers and sisters, the oldest is in the 1940, oldest and three more will be in the 1950, and the others with the other three in the 1960. The oldest will not be in the same family group in the 1960, as she was married in 57.

I use the event clipboard, of course. ;) But I choose a more narrative format for the Event Notes; I don't just transcribe the entries. So for a person, there will be Individual events before they are married, then Marriage events, then Individual events if they are the surviving spouse. I do not use the Chronology much. --Paula _____ From: Michele Lewis <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, April 7, 2012 11:09:53 AM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] New Census Tool The one problem with this is it is a lot harder to follow someone through the census years this way. 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.
