Hi,
I'm coming into this thread late, but ...
When posting an individual with no known birthdate, I *always enter
something* for birthdate.
Perhaps most frequently is finding/posting a parent, where e.g.
"[childbirthdate]-30" may be appropriate, posted as e.g. "Est 1848".
Two benefits --
first that Legacy will then mark the individual as dead at an appropriate
future date
second it's most helpful in e.g. Index View for sorting individuals and/or
in just plain seeing *something* which might help one "recognize" that
individual, especially amongst many with the same name!
