Hi Shirley, You're not in a mess if you have a number of census events - one for each relevant census - each with their own source or sources if you've also used transcriptions and then have seen the actual image. Much the best way for the timeline in Chronology View to work so you can see where the person is every ten years (or more often if you have other census data in between or other residence information).
