As you know, Legacy is optimized for four part locations. But you can
enter more than that if you want. GEO just will not find it.
You could enter something like (and I am exaggerating):
Brownsville, Apple Parish, Northern Earth, Countryside, England, Earth
If you want to. That is six parts.
Another Brian on the list? OhmyGod!

It doesn't work terribly well for England because it doesn't have too many

I'd like to see what you find out--please don't leave it off list.
But also, Legacy is your servant, not your master. In my opinion, if the
depth of details of the sourcing is killing you, then pare it down. The
point is for others to be able to see where you got your information.
