An example would be:United States Michigan Chippewa County Soo Township Sault Ste Marie
Unless I enter it like this: Sault Ste Marie (Sault Twp), Chippewa, Michigan, United States, I "lose" the information that SSM is in Soo Twp. I think Barbeau, Chippewa County, Michigan, USA would be in Bruce Twp. (that's a guess as to the township). I could put the Township in the note field if it the parenthesis will cause difficulty down the line when I might want to do more with my data. But as far as I can see this still keeps the four commas for sorting purposes. Another problem arises when the town/city is the same name as the township. How will I know if the person lived in the town or this is referring to the township? Since I'm leaving off "County" and just using "Chippewa, it doesn't seem consistent to enter "Soo/Sault Township, Chippewa, MI..." But maybe that is getting too picky. Maybe that is the way it's done. I'm just feeling my way to an entry system with which I'm reasonably comfortable. I have the beginner video set that I purchased when I ordered Legacy 5 and from the look of the preview, there hasn't been much change, if any. Unfortunately only the sound comes up on my computer and no picture. Tried it on Windows 7 and on my old laptop with Win XP. I'm waiting for a response from an email to tech support. I hate to have to buy the set I already have! Thanks for the reminder to cut! I never seem to remember. Wish I could have everyone put a reminder in their signature line. :) >________________________________ > From: Paula Ryburn <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2012 12:53 PM >Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Master Locations - Townships; census > > >Marg, Please post an example of an actual instance about which you have this >question.
