[LegacyUG] Occupations and residences

2014-09-18 Thread Susan Anderson
My father moved, with us his family, almost yearly from farm to farm working as 
a labourer. I don't want to make too long a list under facts. So do I add a 
residence or occupation event or maybe make a combined event which would make 
rather a long title. I am thinking about the chronology list which I love.
Any thoughts?

What's wrong with a long list?

If you combine all the moves into one Event it could completely negate
the point of a Chronology.

yes the beauty of the chronology is that everything is in date order
and you (or anyone else) can easily see the changes - whether that is
children, occupation, residence, etc. Whether you review your report
in list or report view, it is very helpful. Give it a go with a few
entries and see which you prefer, you might be surprised.
