For the time being I will play around with it and see if I can get it worded 
like I like.  I might make a suggestion too :)

Hugs...

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Race

But it's a "fact".... note the list is titled Events/Facts.

Not everything in the census is in Legacy - and don't forget, the census 
records from other countries probably have different information than those in 
the US. Plus each US census is different.

There aren't fields for schooling, literacy, occupation, etc.

I would say most people abstract everything beyond the vitals into the data 
into the Notes, either the Census Source Text field or the Event Notes field.

If you want to submit a Suggestion form, we can pass that on to the programmers.


Sincerely,
Sherry
