Instead of reading he/she (for individual screen entries) the marriage screen uses the word "they".......the data is entered the same way. You will probably want to make a comment as to which children may still be members of the household especially if you use the census event. If you do make comments they can be expanded to include a mention of those children who are no longer members of the nuclear family - - their status - - this then ties all back to the events of those children. Once a spouse dies (divorced or whatever) I return to the individual event for any additional moves, residences, etc. I suppose some will say this is redundant to some extent but I have never thought of it as such - - very little extra work involved and provides a nice verification tool.

I Like what you said, Tom. You said that some events are family events,
such as moving or immigrating from one place to another, and need to be
entered for the whole family, not just the head of the household. I agree.


BUT, how do you do that? How do you enter an event for each member of a
family at one times without having to enter it for each individual?


Thank you, Marie
