Firstly, when you export a tagged group to a new family file, locations should be present in the new file. I wonder what happened?
But your actual task. I'd use tagging.
1) Tag your direct line ancestors on one tag number
2) In the Master Location list, Show List for locations in Vermont and tag them on another tag number
3) Search for those with both tags
Make sure the tag numbers that you plan to use are clear before you start.
You can search by location but you search by birth place, death place, event place etc so require multiple searches. Show list is quicker and easier.

Please help me with knowing how to print all direct line ancestors with any event in Vermont.
I have experimented with focus groups, tagging and location lists and can't get everything coordinated. I also tried the search option but didn't see a place to search by location. I have checked the manual and help files and tried to find something in the archives without success. I must be missing something very obvious.
I tried another approach and exported my tagged direct line to a new family file. That was fine except the locations didn't seem to be exported with them.
For something like this is it better to use tagging or focus groups?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
